Frequently asked questions about U1401
What does U1401 mean?
Diagnostic Trouble Code (3 interpretations). The control module detected a fault associated with the MOST Critical Unlock Detected circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Hyundai.
Is U1401 generic or manufacturer-specific?
U1401 is a manufacturer-specific code. In this database it is documented for: Hyundai, PSA. The same number can mean something different on other brands.
Can TuningBot remove U1401 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 U1401 is removable in your case.
