U0513 (68-8A) — Received Invalid Data From Yaw Rate Sensor Module

System: Network Communication  |  Type: Generic (OBD-II Standard)  |  Make: Generic

About U0513

U0513 is a generic (obd-ii standard) network communication diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the U-prefix family of codes, which covers inter-module network communication (CAN, LIN, FlexRay, or similar) faults.

When U0513 is stored, the module has detected a sensor-related fault — the reported value from the named sensor is out of spec.

Scanning & clearing: Network (U) codes report communication faults between modules. When diagnosing U-codes, checking the vehicle's CAN bus integrity, supply/ground at each module, and reading all modules for related faults is usually the first step.

Because U0513 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.

Code Information

The ABS and electronic stability control module communicates with the Yaw Rate Sensor Module over the CAN bus to receive yaw rate and lateral acceleration data used in stability control calculations. DTC U0513 sets when the receiving module detects that the message from the yaw rate sensor module is present but contains invalid, implausible, or out of range values that do not conform to the expected signal structure or physical limits. A failure type of 68 with an 8A qualifier points to a data integrity or plausibility problem rather than a complete loss of communication. This is usually cause...
