PITSTOP: TECHNICAL OPERATIONS: CCRC WITH DTC B281600 (PS798) - This Pitstop provides information regarding DTC B281600 stored on some 2025 - 2026MY Carnival (KA4, KA4 HEV) vehicles equipped with Connected Car Rear Cockpit ‘ccRC’ rear seat entertainment screens. 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.

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
