U04B1: Ungültige Daten vom Batterieüberwachungsmodul empfangen
Was zu tun ist
Expect stop-start to stop working, and possibly a battery warning, before anything else. The car has lost confidence in what it knows about its own battery, so it takes the cautious option.
The single most useful question: has the battery been replaced, and was the new one registered to the car? Many modern cars need to be told, and it takes a couple of minutes with the right tool. Skipping it causes this fault and also shortens the new battery's life, because the car keeps charging it as though it were the old one.
Mention anything wired directly to the battery — a dashcam, extra lights, an alarm or a tracker. Connected to the wrong post, they draw current the car cannot measure, and its accounting drifts until it stops making sense.
Have the battery and its terminals tested anyway. It is cheap, and a tired battery produces odd reports all over the car.
Was dieser Code bedeutet
The battery monitor is reporting a state of charge or health that cannot be accepted. See U0400 for the family's framing.
Modern cars measure their own battery far more carefully than most owners realise, and this code is a good place to explain why. A small sensor clamped around the negative terminal measures every amp entering and leaving the battery, its voltage and its temperature, and from those it keeps a running estimate of state of charge and of how much capacity the battery has lost with age.
That estimate drives real behaviour. The alternator is not simply switched on — charging voltage is chosen from what the battery needs, and deliberately reduced under acceleration to save fuel. Stop-start is permitted or refused on the same estimate. So is how long the car keeps its electronics awake after being locked.
Which gives this code its single most useful cause: a battery replaced without telling the car. The monitor keeps the ageing history of a battery that is no longer in the vehicle, so it reports a tired battery which now measures like a new one, and the numbers stop being consistent. On many vehicles registering the new battery is a two-minute procedure with a scan tool — and skipping it also causes a new battery to be undercharged into an early grave, which is why it matters beyond this code.
The second cause is anything wired around the sensor. A dashcam, winch, extra lighting or an alarm connected directly to the battery's negative post bypasses the measurement entirely, so current flows that the module cannot see and its arithmetic drifts.
The battery itself is still worth testing. A cell that has failed internally produces readings nothing can reconcile — and the corpus's standing note about supply faults applies: a marginal battery generates implausible reports across half the vehicle.

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.

Dazu wurde noch nichts veröffentlicht. Was immer Sie gefunden haben, ist es wert, aufgeschrieben zu werden — selbst eine Sackgasse erspart jemandem denselben Nachmittag.
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.
