About B2145

B2145 is a generic (obd-ii standard) body diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the B-prefix family of codes, which covers body, interior, airbag, or comfort-electronics faults.

Because B2145 is a generic OBD-II code, its base definition is shared across manufacturers. The specific diagnostic steps, reference values, and repair procedures can vary by vehicle, and the TaT Diagnostic Assistant includes verified procedures submitted by working technicians.

The RF HR value is the rolling code counter used by Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and similar wireless systems to ensure each remote transmission is unique and cannot be replayed by an attacker. The module and each programmed remote increment this counter on every successful transmission, and the module stores its current expected value in NVM. When that stored value is lost or corrupted, the module cannot syn...
