U0458 Invalid Data Received From Information Center B

Check engine lightUsually off
EmissionsNot relevant
Drive cycleNot required
Limp modeNo

U0458 covers the second driver information display, information center B, which J2012 keeps apart from center A, the instrument cluster and the head-up display; which physical screen a maker calls B, for example a passenger or rear-seat display, is its own decision. A receiving module logs the code when frames from B arrive but fail plausibility, such as a stuck alive counter or a wrong CRC as described in the AUTOSAR end-to-end protocol; if no frames come at all, U0157 is set instead. No manufacturer documents U0458 publicly, and none of the bulletins checked names its lost-contact twin U0157 either. Since such a display only presents information, the effect is normally limited to missing or frozen content on that one screen, with no MIL and no limp mode.

Likely causes

Software fault or unsuitable software level in display B
Loose connector or damaged bus wiring to display B
Internal fault of display B

Symptoms

  • Second display blank, frozen or showing wrong values
  • Functions operated through that display unavailable
