What is the meaning of the ">" prefix in the DTC list displayed by LeafSpy?
For example
>U1000-00 0B EV/HEV CAN Comm Circuit
As opposed to
P31B7-00 0A EV/HEV CAN Error EVC-285
 
The 2nd one is a DTC for the airbags.
The 1st one is detecting a universal CAN code. This is where my knowledge is limited, and I'm not sure but think the > means the CAN com is not recieveing an input it expects to see. I am foggy on this digital stuff. Hopefully someone else can shed more light on it.
If these are the two you have and the car is not working properly, I would resolve the hard code (second one) before looking into the 1st.
If the VCM thinks the car has been in an accident, from say a airbag code, it can disable somethings depending on how bad it thinks the crash has been.
If you haven't done so, I recommend downloading the Service Manual from the NICO site, but they only go up to 2015 models at present. It does cover a lot and may help even if you have a newer model.
Edit: I see from your other post that you did that already.
