MODEL

SERVICE INFORMATION

This Service Information Bulletin (Revision 1) replaces SI B61 05 20 dated February 2020.

What's New (Specific text highlighted):

Procedure: F39, F48 Target I-level

SITUATION

A yellow CCM (Check Control Message) ID 415 is displayed-

"Increased battery drain! //Battery. Electrostatic discharge at standstill/start engine. Energy management"

The results of the Energy Diagnosis test plan identifies the Controller as the root cause of the CCM.

CAUSE

The Controller delays the vehicle going to sleep by up to 6 minutes. In some cases, this will cause the CCM 415 to be displayed when starting the vehicle.

Replacing the Controller in this case will not correct this situation.

CORRECTION

Carry out diagnosis with ISTA and run the Energy Diagnosis test plan. If the Controller is identified as the root cause of the CCM in the results, program the vehicle if the I-level is lower than 19-11-530.

PROCEDURE

Is CCM 415 displayed in the vehicle or read out during the key read?
Yes: Proceed to the next step.

No: This SI B does not apply. Continue with standard diagnosis.
Perform Energy Diagnosis. Does Energy Diagnosis results indicate that the Controller is the cause of the CCM?
Yes: Proceed to next step.

No: This SI B does not apply. Continue with standard diagnosis.
Is the I-level of the vehicle lower than the target I-level listed below?
Yes: Program the vehicle using the latest ISTA version.

No: This SI B does not apply. Continue with standard diagnosis

Model	Target integration level
F22, F23, F31, F32, F33, F34, F36, F82, F83, F87	F020-19-11-530 or higher
G01, G02, F97, F98, G30, F90, G32, G12	S15A-19-11-530 or higher
F39, F48	F056-19-11-550 or higher
I01, I12, I15	I001-19-11-530 or higher

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 ) when performing programming.

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

Programming and Encoding - Vehicle Control Units (RO and Claim Comments Required)

The programming procedure automatically reprograms and encodes all vehicle control modules which do not have the latest software I-level. If one or more control module failures occur during this programming procedure:

Please claim this consequential control module-related repair work (including performing the IRAP Control Unit Recovery procedure first as required, refer to the SIB in AIR) under the defect code listed in this bulletin with the applicable AIR labor operations.

Please explain this additional work (The why and what) on the repair order and in the claim comments section

For control module failures that occurred prior to performing this programming procedure:

When covered under an applicable limited warranty, claim the applicable test plan and the corresponding control module-related repair work using the applicable defect code and labor operations in AIR (including diagnosis with separate punch times).

Other Repairs

If other eligible and covered work is performed as a result of performing the ISTA diagnostics and related test plans, claim this work with the applicable defect code and the labor operations that are listed in AIR (including diagnosis with separate punch times).
