Frequently asked questions about U031A
What does U031A mean?
Software Incompatibility With Transmission Range Control Module. The control module detected a fault associated with the Software Incompatibility With Transmission Range Control Module circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode.
Is U031A generic or manufacturer-specific?
U031A is a generic OBD-II code: it has the same meaning on every make and model that follows the SAE standard.
Can TuningBot remove U031A at file level?
Not guaranteed. Powertrain (P) codes can be reliably disabled in the ECU calibration, but body, chassis and network codes depend on the specific control unit and how the fault is implemented - some can be handled, some cannot. Ask for a quote and our engineers will check your file and tell you, free of charge, whether U031A is removable in your case.
