U059DInvalid Data Received From Drive Motor Control Module D
- Generic OBD-II code · Network
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- Module D only exists where four drive motors are fitted, one per wheel. Rivian's R1T and R1S Quad-Motor are production examples: each wheel has its own motor, so a single faulty controller costs one corner of drive, not a whole axle. U059D records that the fourth controller keeps sending frames whose torque, speed or diagnostic content fails the receiving controller's checks. Ford's hybrid OBD description shows the usual check for electrified modules: a CAN message missing for 5 s sets the lost-communication code, a signal reporting invalid states for 5 s the invalid-data code (U0111 and U0412 for the battery energy control module). No manufacturer documents U059D publicly, so the corner it refers to and the reaction are maker-specific. A typical response is to switch off that motor, mirror the limit on the opposite wheel so the vehicle stays straight, and drop to a reduced power mode. Distinguish it from U029C, where the module is silent, and from codes B and C for the other motors.
