U0155 on Chevrolet vehicles indicates lost communication with instrument cluster. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Chevrolet model — most commonly on Bolt EV. This is a network communication code meaning a control module (usually the engine or body computer) has lost communication with the instrument cluster over the vehicle's data bus. Modern vehicles share information between modules over a network (such as CAN), and the cluster both displays data and relays messages. When messages from the cluster stop arriving, this code sets. You may see warning lights, dead or erratic gauges, missing displays, or other modules acting up. It usually points to wiring, power/ground, or the cluster itself rather than the engine.

Common Causes of U0155

  • •Faulty instrument cluster
  • •Loss of power or ground to the cluster
  • •Damaged or corroded CAN bus wiring
  • •Loose or corroded connectors at the cluster
  • •Blown fuse feeding the cluster
  • •Short or open on the communication bus
  • •A different failed module dragging down the bus

Chevrolet Bolt EV(1 issue)

  • Infotainment Screen Ghosting and Flickering2017-2023

    The 10.2-inch infotainment touchscreen in the Bolt EV develops ghost touch inputs, screen flickering, unresponsive areas, and random screen blackouts. The screen registers phantom touches that change radio stations, adjust climate controls, or activate features without driver input. The issue is caused by a failing digitizer layer in the touchscreen or a loose ribbon cable connection behind the display. Hot weather and direct sunlight on the screen exacerbate the ghosting behavior. The issue affects both the original infotainment system and the updated system in 2020+ models.
