What Does U0592 Mean?
The control module receiving data from the gear shift control module 'B' has detected invalid or out-of-range data on the vehicle communication network. This affects the transmission or gear selection system's ability to communicate shift position or status information.
Common Causes
35%
Gear shift control module 'B' internal failure or software corruption
30%
Damaged wiring or loose connections at gear shift module connector
20%
Faulty shift position sensor providing invalid data to control module
10%
Low voltage supply or poor ground at gear shift control module
5%
CAN bus communication network fault affecting module communication
Diagnostic Steps
1
Step 1: Monitor live data for gear shift module 'B' and verify shift position readings match actual gear selector position
2
Step 2: Inspect connectors at gear shift control module and transmission for bent pins, corrosion, or water intrusion
3
Step 3: Test voltage supply and ground circuits to gear shift control module per manufacturer specifications
4
Step 4: Check resistance and operation of shift position sensor if module communication is present
5
Step 5: Perform module power cycle and software update; replace gear shift control module if data remains invalid
Estimated Repair Cost
$300 - $1,800
Parts + labor, varies by vehicle and location
The control module receiving data from the gear shift control module 'B' has detected invalid or out-of-range data on the vehicle communication network. This affects the transmission or gear selection system's ability to communicate shift position or status information.
The most common cause of U0592 (Invalid Data Received From Gear Shift Control Module "B") is: Gear shift control module 'B' internal failure or software corruption
Typical repair costs for U0592 range from $300 to $1,800, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
Vehicle may not shift properly or may be stuck in one gear. Incorrect gear indication can lead to unexpected vehicle behavior and reduced safety.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to U0592 to identify the root cause.
