Fullback MOST Bus Fault

My 2017 Fiat Fullback diesel's audio system is completely dead, no tunes or sat nav. I've got an error stored about a MOST bus fault. Anyone seen this before?

Summary of the thread

A 2017 Fiat Fullback diesel's audio system is non-functional due to a MOST bus fault, which is a fiber optic network issue affecting infotainment control units. The problem is likely caused by a faulty module within the MOST bus, but the specific unit is not identified by the error code. The recommended solution is to use dealer-level diagnostic tools to pinpoint the failing module, which typically requires professional repair, costing around 1000€.

MOST bus fault on a Fullback, eh? Sounds nasty. The MOST bus is a fiber optic network that connects all your infotainment control units. When one goes down, it can take the whole system with it. Have you tried scanning for specific error codes? Knowing which module is reporting the fault would be a huge help.

Cheers for the quick reply! Yeah, I scanned it, and it's definitely pointing to something on the MOST bus, but it's not saying which unit is the culprit, just the general fault. Any clever ways to narrow it down without ripping the whole dash apart?

Without knowing the exact failing module, it’s tricky. The proper way to diagnose this is with dealer level diagnostic tools. These tools are capable of interrogating each module on the MOST bus to pinpoint the failing unit. Given the symptoms and the fault code, combined with your mileage, it's probably one of the head unit modules failing internally. Unfortunately, it sounds like a trip to the workshop is inevitable. These kind of defects cost around 1000€.

I was hoping to avoid the garage, but it sounds like you're right. I took it in. Turns out you nailed it – a faulty module on the MOST bus. Cost me a grand to fix, but at least I've got my tunes back! Appreciate the help!
