Low Speed CAN Communication Bus Off

Moderate severity

What it means

The low-speed CAN controller has gone bus-off after repeated error frames. The fault-tolerant single-wire fallback is exhausted and the bus stops carrying traffic.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.
