What U02B7 means

U02B7 reports that rear radar B, the second corner unit at the back, has gone silent. Stellantis lists it together with U02B6 for the 2022-2023 Grand Cherokee and Wagoneer models in GPOP review 9100222 and relies on a side-to-side comparison: after a pin unlock the two rear corner radars are exchanged, so the fault either follows the sensor or stays on the harness side. A swapped or new radar must then be calibrated on a drive. Mercedes-Benz assigns rear radar B to the outer right position on the 2026 CLA electric, as its invalid-data code U05B855 shows. Since blind spot and cross traffic systems need both rear corners, a fault on one side usually disables the warning for that side, and some systems shut the whole function off.

What to do next

  • Note U02B7 and any other codes stored with it: several codes together often point to one cause.
  • Check for loose connectors and damaged wiring around the parts the code names.
  • Check open recalls for your car: some faults are fixed for free by the dealer. Enter your VIN.
  • Clear the code only after the repair. If it comes back, the fault is still there.

Buying a used car? Scan it for stored codes before you pay. A recently cleared memory can hide a problem.
