N400 control unit error

I'm seeing a control unit communication error on my 2023 Chevrolet N400 with the gasoline engine, around 71185 km. The engine is overheating, check engine light is on and off, and there's coolant spillage. I'm thinking it could be a cable or plug issue disrupting the CAN bus. Anyone else seen similar issues?

Summary of the thread

A 2023 Chevrolet N400 experienced a control unit communication error, engine overheating, and coolant spillage. The suspected cause was a disruption in the CAN bus, possibly due to a cable or plug issue. The problem was resolved by replacing a faulty wiring connector to the engine control module, restoring normal function.

Whoa, overheating and coolant spills are never good! I had something kinda similar happen with my Chevy (though it's not an N400). Turned out to be a dodgy wiring harness that was messing with all sorts of sensor readings. Is it throwing any specific error codes?

Could you tell me more about the wiring harness issue you had? Did it also show as a control unit communication error, and which modules were affected? Any details would help.

Yeah, it was a communication error alright, made the whole system go haywire. Honestly, I'd suggest getting it checked out by a professional. Could be a simple fix, but you don't want to risk frying anything important.

Just to close the loop, the issue was a faulty wiring connector to the engine control module. Replaced the connector, and it seems to be back to normal. Cost was 95€. Thanks for the help.
