Official summary

Are you reading a DTC B121E (climate control unit lost communication with touch control panel) on the HDS and you can t find anything in the service information to help you troubleshoot it? Just use the troubleshooting procedure for DTC U0180 (lost communication with auto L/T); it s the one you want. DTC B121E was mistakenly assigned to this vehicle and really doesn t apply. We ll be revising the DTC U0180 troubleshooting procedure to include DTC B121E.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
