1What it means in plain English
A body system has a fault. Depending on the make, this range can include airbags and seat belts, windows, locks and climate control, and also charging, brake, oil or coolant sensors.

- Wiring or connector fault
- Faulty sensor or switch
- Water or corrosion in a connector
- Control module fault
- Low battery voltage
3Can I drive?
Do not assume this code is safe to drive. If it concerns the brakes, brake vacuum, charging/alternator, engine oil or coolant, have it diagnosed before driving. Airbags or seat belts may not work in a crash, and a brake or charging fault can leave the car unsafe or stranded. For convenience systems (windows, locks, climate), have it checked when convenient.
This page gives general information. It is not professional advice. For a definite diagnosis and a repair quote, ask a qualified mechanic to inspect the car.
