Hi, prior to my issue there was a human error. My wife locked the seat belt and used to sit on the seat because she’s not comfortable with seat belt for short distance. After a few times she did it a warning message came on screen, “Restraint Sys Malfunction consult workshop”.
We neglected that and thought of going to garage later because I live in a remote area.
Suddenly one day ESP and ABS inoperative message came, and vehicle halted and Engine Fan is running at high speed.

Check engine light was on there and ESP light on.

Even if I tried to open the boot alone the fan started running high.

Diagnostic says CAN communication fail and some crash sensor short circuit in left door.

By the way my car is right hand drive and I’m from India.

What is the code the CAN scan found? I have seen the front control module go out on these cars which cause all kinds of weird problems. Here is the location and how to change it out in the images below. Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
