Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information






Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) information KVM-0018

Condition




The keyless vehicle module (KVM) checks the connection with the connected antenna when the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph). The check occurs every 5th operating cycle. The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the control module registers that the signal from any of the outer right-hand antenna circuits is too high.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can always be diagnosed when the car is supplied with power.

Substitute value
- None.

Possible source
- A part of the circuit for the outer antennas on the right-hand side has a short-circuit to supply voltage.

Fault symptom[s]
- No, or reduced, keyless functionality.
