FAULT 930C1E IS FOUND IN THE ACSM

TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN

Reference Number(s): SI B65 05 20, Date of Issue:  January 24, 2020
BMW: F91 M8 Convertible; F92 M8 Coupe; G12 7 Series Sedan; G14 8 Series Convertible; G15 8 Series Coupe; G16 8 Series Gran Coupe; G30 5 Series Sedan; From 10/2019

SITUATION

Vehicle comes into the workshop with the following illuminated:

During diagnosis, the following fault code is found stored in the ASCM (Advanced Crash Safety Module):

If the fault is cleared, it returns immediately.

CAUSE

The root cause is under investigation.

CORRECTION

Perform diagnosis with ISTA.

If only the 930C1E fault is present, reprogram the vehicle.

Repeat the diagnosis with ISTA.

If the fault is still present in the ACSM after programming, replace the ACSM as outlined in the Procedure section.

PROCEDURE

If fault code 930C1E is the only air bag fault stored, program the vehicle with ISTA 4.21.2x (released mid-January 2020) or higher.

If the fault is still present in the ACSM after programming/coding; replace the ACSM and program the vehicle with ISTA.

Note that ISTA will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.

Always connect a BMW-approved battery charger/power supply ( SI B04 23 10  ). 

For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to DealerSpeed/TIS/Technical Documentation/Diagnostics and Programming/Programming Documentation.
