Sensor K's frames reach the bus but are discarded as invalid. U0570 and its partner U026F are not documented by any vehicle maker, so the camera behind letter K is unknown. One use for additional image sensors is towing: a Magna patent describes satellite cameras fitted to the trailer whose images are merged with the picture of the car's own reversing camera into a see-through trailer view while driving forward, with a switch to the backup image in reverse. Such cameras connect through extra plugs and cables at the hitch, which brings contact and software-matching risks of their own. A fault of this kind would remove that view only; the towing vehicle drives normally and no MIL is set.

Likely causes

Corroded or loose plug where an add-on or trailer camera connects
Additional camera not configured or software not matching the vehicle
Image processing sensor K internally faulty

Symptoms

  • Extra camera view (for example trailer view) missing or black
  • Code appears mainly with a trailer or accessory connected
