Was zu tun ist

Do not take the vehicle off-road or anywhere demanding until this is sorted.

The terrain modes will not work, and the important part is that the car looks and feels completely normal while being configured entirely for tarmac. Traction control will cut in early rather than letting the wheels spin as they need to in mud or sand, the gearbox will change up when it should hold a gear, and hill descent control may not be there when you want it.

A driver who selects a mode, sees nothing happen, and carries on is relying on settings the car has not applied — which is exactly the situation to avoid on a slope or in soft ground.

If other warnings are on too — four-wheel drive, differentials, suspension — those are probably the real fault. This system does not do anything itself; it tells the others what to do. So when one of them is unhappy, terrain mode stops working as a consequence, and fixing that one thing restores it.

Was dieser Code bedeutet

The all terrain control module is broadcasting data that cannot be accepted as true. See U0400 for the family's framing.

This is the terrain-mode system — the dial or menu offering settings for mud, sand, snow, rock or gravel — and what it actually does is worth understanding, because it explains why losing it removes more than a selector.

It is a coordinator rather than a mechanism. Choosing a terrain mode does not operate anything by itself; it tells several other systems to change their behaviour at once — throttle response, gearbox shift points, the transfer case or coupling, the differentials, traction control thresholds, hill descent control and sometimes ride height. The module publishes the selected mode, and everything else acts on it.

So an implausible mode report is rejected by all of them, and the vehicle reverts to its standard on-road configuration.

That is the practical content of this page, and it is a genuine safety point on a capable vehicle. The car looks and feels normal, and it is now configured for tarmac. Traction control will intervene early rather than allowing the wheelspin that clears mud or sand; the gearbox will change up where it should hold a gear; hill descent control may be unavailable on exactly the descent it was wanted for.

So: do not take the vehicle anywhere demanding until it is fixed. A driver who selects a mode, gets no confirmation, and proceeds anyway is relying on configuration the vehicle has not applied.

Following the family's rule, this module depends on everything it coordinates. A fault in the transfer case at U0403, the couplings at U0414, the differentials at U0436 and U0437, or the suspension at U0421 makes terrain mode unavailable as a consequence — so this code alongside any of those is downstream, and the work belongs upstream.

CarGeek ist ein Nachschlagewerk, kein Werkstatthandbuch. Die Seiten entstehen aus öffentlichen Quellen und aus dem, was andere festgestellt haben, nie aus den Serviceunterlagen des Herstellers; für Ihr konkretes Fahrzeug können sie daher falsch oder unvollständig sein. Ein Teil des Beschriebenen birgt echte Gefahren: Hochspannung, Kraftstoff unter Druck, gespeicherte Energie sowie heiße oder bewegte Teile.

Lassen Sie alles, wonach Sie handeln wollen, von einer fachlich geschulten Person anhand der herstellereigenen Vorgehensweise für Ihr Fahrzeug prüfen. Nichts hiervon ersetzt diese Vorgehensweise.

Was einen Bericht lesenswert macht:

  • Das Fahrzeug — Marke, Modell, Baujahr und Motor. Derselbe Fehler verhält sich auf jedem anders.
  • Was Sie gemessen haben, nicht nur, was Sie getauscht haben.
  • Was es tatsächlich behoben hat — oder dass nichts es behoben hat, was ebenso nützlich ist.
