U0111 on Polestar

Lost Communication With Battery Energy Control Module "A"

Critical1 Polestar model affectedSystem: Hybrid-EV

U0111 on Polestar vehicles indicates lost communication with battery energy control module "a". Au7o has documented this code across 1 Polestar model — most commonly on Polestar 2. Sets when a module loses data-bus communication with Battery Energy Control Module 'A' (the high-voltage battery management controller) and no longer receives its expected messages.

Common Causes of U0111

  • •Open or shorted bus wiring to the battery energy control module
  • •Corroded or loose connector / poor ground
  • •Blown fuse / lost low-voltage power feed
  • •Low 12V battery voltage
  • •Failed battery energy control module

U0111 on Polestar by Model

Polestar Polestar 2(1 issue)

  • Battery Energy Control Module (BECM) Microprocessor Reset — High-Voltage Disconnect and Loss of Drive Power (Recall 21V110)2021-2022

    A fault in the BECM microprocessor operating system causes the processor to reset while the car is in operation. The reset drops the high-voltage contactors, disconnecting the traction pack from the drive units and producing an immediate loss of propulsion with no warning. NHTSA campaign 21V110000 (Polestar R10079) covered 3,457 US 2021-2022 Polestar 2 vehicles, reported February 23, 2021, with owner letters mailed April 23, 2021. This is the battery-management-side power-loss campaign and is separate from both the front inverter capacitor tin-plating recall and the later BMS charge-limit software campaign — a single car can be open on more than one.
