This code means there's a problem with the part of the car that cleans the LIDAR sensor, which helps the car 'see' its surroundings.
The LIDAR Washer Actuator B is responsible for spraying cleaning fluid on the LIDAR sensor to ensure it remains clear of dirt and debris.
The B0107 code indicates an issue with the secondary LIDAR washer actuator circuit. This actuator is part of the system that keeps the LIDAR sensor clean by spraying washer fluid. If this actuator fails, the sensor may become obstructed, affecting the vehicle's ability to accurately detect its environment.
• Warning light on the dashboard
• LIDAR sensor not functioning properly
• Washer fluid not spraying on the LIDAR sensor
• Faulty LIDAR washer actuator
• Damaged wiring or connectors
• Blown fuse in the actuator circuit
LIDAR: Light Detection and Ranging, a technology that measures distance using laser light.
Actuator: A mechanical device for moving or controlling a mechanism or system.
• Check for any blown fuses related to the LIDAR washer system.
• Inspect wiring and connectors for damage or disconnection.
• Test the actuator for proper operation.
• Replace the faulty LIDAR washer actuator.
• Repair or replace damaged wiring or connectors.
• Replace any blown fuses.
• Multimeter
• Screwdriver set
• OBD-II scanner

Moderate
• Vehicle 1
• Vehicle 2
• Vehicle 3
• Regularly check and refill washer fluid.
• Inspect wiring and connectors periodically.
• Ensure the LIDAR sensor is cleaned during routine maintenance.
Sensor Issue
• Avoid driving in conditions where the sensor could get dirty until repaired.
• Schedule a service appointment promptly.
Check vehicle warranty for coverage on sensor and actuator components.
This code has become more common with the increased use of LIDAR systems in modern vehicles.
Moderate – While the vehicle may still operate, sensor accuracy is compromised, affecting safety features.
Driving with impaired sensor functionality can reduce the effectiveness of safety systems.
• Vehicle in park with ignition on.
• Access to the LIDAR sensor and washer system.
The LIDAR washer actuator is typically located near the LIDAR sensor, often in the front grille or bumper area.
Q: What is a LIDAR sensor?
A: A LIDAR sensor uses laser light to detect objects around the vehicle, helping with navigation and safety systems.
Q: Can I drive with this code?
A: It's not recommended as it may affect the vehicle's safety features. It's best to get it fixed soon.
