What Does U0559 Mean?
The control module receiving data from the radio transceiver has detected corrupted or implausible information on the communication network. This indicates a breakdown in data integrity between the radio module and other vehicle systems.
Common Causes
35%
Faulty or failing radio transceiver module with internal communication errors
30%
Corroded or damaged wiring harness connections to radio module
20%
CAN bus network interference or termination resistor failure
10%
Software corruption or outdated firmware in radio module
5%
Power supply issues causing unstable module operation
Diagnostic Steps
1
Step 1: Using scan tool, monitor live data from radio transceiver module and identify which specific data parameters are invalid or out of range
2
Step 2: Inspect all wiring connectors at radio module for corrosion, bent pins, or loose connections; check ground integrity with multimeter
3
Step 3: Verify proper voltage supply to radio module (typically 12V ignition and battery feeds)
4
Step 4: Check CAN bus network integrity using oscilloscope or multimeter to verify proper termination resistance (typically 60 ohms) and signal quality
5
Step 5: Attempt software reflash/update of radio module if available; replace module if fault persists after verifying all connections and network integrity
Estimated Repair Cost
$150 - $800
Parts + labor, varies by vehicle and location
The control module receiving data from the radio transceiver has detected corrupted or implausible information on the communication network. This indicates a breakdown in data integrity between the radio module and other vehicle systems.
The most common cause of U0559 (Invalid Data Received From Radio Transceiver) is: Faulty or failing radio transceiver module with internal communication errors
Typical repair costs for U0559 range from $150 to $800, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
No direct safety impact on vehicle operation. May affect radio functionality, navigation, or other convenience features that could indirectly distract driver if malfunctioning.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to U0559 to identify the root cause.
