A 2021 Chevrolet Colorado was experiencing sporadic errors, including issues with driving mode, lights, audio, and navigation, with systems sometimes shutting down or becoming unresponsive. The problem was identified as a defective cable connection to the BUS system, causing these erratic behaviors. The solution involved tightening the loose cable connection, which resolved the issues and restored normal functionality.

Starting is fine, and the engine seems to run normally, even when the errors pop up. I've pulled the codes, and there's a whole mix of them related to various control units. But they seem unrelated to each other, you know? That's why I'm so confused. What exactly do you mean by a BUS system issue?

Given the symptoms and the range of seemingly unrelated errors, a defective cable connection to the BUS system is quite plausible. This could manifest as temporary shutdowns or unresponsive control units, explaining the sporadic behavior. I would suggest bringing it to a trusted workshop for a diagnostic, since you cannot fix the issue yourself.

Thanks for the insight! I took it to the shop, and you nailed it – a loose cable connection to the BUS system was the culprit. They tightened it up, cleared the codes, and everything seems to be running smoothly now. Cost me 155€, but worth it for the peace of mind. Appreciate the help!

This sounds like a potential BUS system issue. Are you experiencing any difficulties starting the vehicle or noticing any changes in engine performance when these errors occur? Have you attempted to read the OBD-II codes yourself to get a clearer understanding of the specific errors being logged?
