When performing a diagnostic scan using the Kia Diagnostic System ‘KDS’, DTC B281600 can become stored but does not cause any concerns with functionality of the ccRC system. DTC B281600 does not trigger any warning lights and does not indicate any hardware malfunction within the ccRC system and does not perform any meaningful diagnostic function. No further diagnosis, Techline case and/or repairs are necessary for DTC B281600 unless there is an active customer complaint of the ccRC system. This issue is expected to be resolved through a future ccRC Over-The-Air ‘OTA’ update.
