U05B3Invalid Data Received From Comfort and Convenience Display B

  • Generic OBD-II code · Network
How the car detects it
Display B is the second comfort screen on vehicles fitted with more than one, typically a rear unit from which back-seat occupants adjust climate and seats. U05B3 is set when its frames arrive but do not pass the receiver's validity checks, whereas U02B2 would mean that display B has fallen silent. No carmaker publishes U05B3 or states which screen counts as B. On the Jeep Grand Wagoneer the front display can lock out the rear one, and Stellantis uses exactly this to find out which unit issues unwanted commands such as fan changes; the rear screen then gets a newer part number with revised firmware (STAR S228A000013 and Rev. A, 2022-2023). A configuration that no longer fits after a replacement is another likely trigger. Rear climate controls may act on their own or ignore input.
