Usually drivable, but get it diagnosed without delay.

First step

Check the plausibility of the values before condemning the module that reports them.

What does it mean?

U1430 is a Network (CAN bus, module communications) fault code. It indicates: Implausible Data Received From Comfort Seat And Wheel Module .

Symptoms

  • Memory seat and mirror positions are not stored or not recalled
  • Seat or steering wheel heating does not work, or switches itself off
  • Seat adjusts by itself or stops mid-travel
  • Warning message about comfort or memory functions on the display
  • Other modules store communication codes at the same time
  • Battery drain if the module never goes to sleep

Likely causes

  • Faulty seat or steering wheel position or heating sensor sending out-of-range values
  • Damaged under-seat harness, which flexes every time the seat is adjusted
  • Connector unlatched or corroded after seat, carpet or steering wheel work
  • Comfort module with a poor power supply or ground, resetting under load
  • Water on the floor pan reaching the module or its connector
  • Comfort module replaced without configuration, so its data does not match the vehicle
  • Internal failure of the comfort seat and steering wheel module

How to fix it

  1. Read the comfort module data and check every seat and steering wheel value for plausibility
  2. Operate each switch while watching the corresponding live value change
  3. Move the seat through its full travel and inspect the harness for stretch and chafe damage
  4. Reseat and inspect the under-seat and steering column connectors, checking for corrosion
  5. Measure supply voltage and ground at the module under load
  6. Check for water on the floor and fix the leak before repairing the electrics
  7. Configure the module to the vehicle after any replacement
