Alfa Romeo Blue and Me Module Failure
Alfa Romeo cars can commonly end up with faults within the Blue and Me Modules. These modules are normally used to access several pieces of functionality within the car using your voice yet when these modules break down it can leave you shouting at your car yet getting no response from the module. Models that can get this fault include: 147, 159 07 – 11, Brera, Giulietta, MiTo and GT. Whenever these modules do end up malfunctioning there are a few common signs.
Common Faults:
- Flashing Mileage
- Loss Of Button Function For Bluetooth
- Bluetooth Phone Connection Not Working
- Missing Node When Using Diagnostics Equipment
- Battery Drain
These parts tend to commonly fail due to manufacturing issues that occur when the car is being produced. These issues are commonly caused by low quality components being used within the cars. If not from manufacturing error, these issues can be caused by external factors from when the car is in use. Mainly, water damage can happen to these modules.
During 2006, the Fiat-Microsoft project was introduced and became quite commonplace in new models. This model was released to try and improve the cars by successfully integrating media, navigation and mobile communications into newer models of the vehicles. Instead, this led to more failures of the Blue and Me modules. Rather than fix the errors caused by the new modules, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles quickly abandoned this system and instead began using the Uconnect 5.0 system for future releases. The 2006 modules were not just installed in the Alfa Romeo. They were also installed within Fiat and Ford models leaving all 3 cars having similar faults.
This has led many consumers with faulty modules and no possible way to get the enhanced replacement from the manufacturer leaving many trapped with these broken modules they cannot use. However, not all hope is lost.
