U0580 code meaning
Invalid Data Received From Haptic Control Module
What U0580 means
A haptic control module produces vibrations the driver feels, in the steering wheel, seat or a touch surface, mainly as a warning. Hyundai and Genesis use a separate haptic steering controller: on the 2015–2016 Genesis and 2017–2018 G80, B247100 for a vibration motor fault brought on the warning lamp and the controller was replaced (19-BE-001, 19-BE-001-G). On the 2021 Sorento, Kia traces B247300 to a poor contact in the wiring to the vibration motor, drawn in the audio or navigation schematics (PS687). GM vibrates the seat in stage 2 of Lane Keep Assist, i.e. after crossing the line by about 40 cm (PIC6048H). The lost-communication partner is U0279, not U027F. U0580 means its data arrive implausible; no maker documents it. Warnings may then come only as chimes or not at all.

Symptoms of U0580
- Steering wheel or seat no longer vibrates during lane or other warnings
- Haptic system warning lamp or message in the cluster
Common causes of U0580
- PossiblePoor contact in the vibration motor circuit making the module report implausible status
- PossibleHaptic controller internally faulty or on an old software level
- Less likelyAlert type setting (chime or vibration) not matching between modules
Check the most likely causes first. Replacing parts by guesswork is the most expensive way to clear a code.

What each part of U0580 means
| U | Network system: communication between the control modules (CAN bus). |
| 0 | Generic code: it means the same on every make (SAE standard). |
| 80 | The exact fault in that area. |
What to do next
- Note U0580 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.

What does U0580 mean?
U0580 means "Invalid Data Received From Haptic Control Module". A haptic control module produces vibrations the driver feels, in the steering wheel, seat or a touch surface, mainly as a warning. It is a generic code, so it means the same on every make.
Is it safe to drive with U0580?
U0580 does not normally turn on the check engine light by itself. Watch for the symptoms above and have it checked soon.
