SERVICE INFORMATION
This Service Information Bulletin (Revision 1) replaces SI B62 05 23 dated December 2023.
What's New (Specific text highlighted):
- Revision of Procedure Section
SITUATION
After programming, the date and time may be incorrect in the vehicle. This can be easily seen by the Condition Based Services showing overdue incorrectly.
CAUSE
Unfavorable software in the Instrument Cluster (KOMBI).
CORRECTION
Program the Instrument Cluster (KOMBI).
PROCEDURE
Determine the vehicle's current I-level by either using AIR or the AWP (Aftersales Workplace) applications.
If the I-Level is currently at S18A-23-11-550 or a more recent version:
- Do not program the vehicle
- Continue with standard diagnosis
If the I-level is lower than S18A-23-11-550 then program the vehicle to I-level S18A-23-11-550 or higher using ISTA 4.45.25 (released mid-JAN. 2024) or higher.
- Connect a BMW-approved battery charger to the vehicle
- Connect the programming system to the vehicle (ISTA 4)
- Determine the measures plan
- Accept and fully work through the measures plan with the control units to be programmed/encoded and enabled
- Follow the rework list
- Depending on the rework list, carry out a vehicle test and delete the fault memory if needed
After the programming has been fully completed, check functionality of the system.
Always connect a BMW-approved battery charger/power supply ( SI B04 23 10 ).
For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to Dealer Universal Portal/TIS/Technical Documentation/Diagnostics and Programming/Programming Documentation.
CLAIM INFORMATION
VEHICLE PROGRAMMING AND ENCODING
During this workshop visit, the affected vehicle may also show one or more programming and encoding Technical Campaign repairs open, the programming and encoding procedure may only be invoiced one time.
Select one of these open Technical Campaigns to perform and submit for updating the vehicle to the required I-level or higher (This includes labor operation codes 00 00 006/556, 61 21 528 and 61 00 730).
Please be sure to also perform any additional before and/or after work (including attaching labels) as required by the open campaigns on the vehicle. Close any other open programming and encoding Campaign repairs as outlined in the corresponding Service Information Bulletin.

| 00 58 500* | Diagnosis Worktime Flat Rate (See below) | 2 FRU |
| And | ||
| 61 00 730 | Programming/encoding control unit(s) | As applicable |
If you are using a Main labor code for another repair, use the Plus code labor operation 00 00 556 instead of 00 00 006, or exclude them (including 61 21 528) when the Vehicle Test is included in another repair.

VEHICLE PROGRAMMING AND ENCODING - ADDITIONAL WORK (RO AND CLAIM COMMENTS REQUIRED)
This procedure automatically reprograms and encodes any vehicle control modules that do not have the latest software I-level.
If one or more control modules fail during the reprogramming procedure, claim the required consequential repair work procedures to address this issue (including performing the IRAP Control Unit Recovery first as required, refer to the SIB in AIR) under the Repair Code in this bulletin together with the corresponding labor operation codes and their flat rate unit (FRU) allowance(s), including the diagnosis* that applies.
Please explain the additional work procedures that were performed (The why and the what) on the repair order and in the claim comments.
For covered repairs that address control module failures that occurred prior to performing this reprogramming procedure, claim this work with the Repair Code listed in AIR together with the corresponding labor operation codes and their flat rate unit (FRU) allowance(s), including the diagnosis* that applies.
(*) Based on which one applies to your center, please refer to SI B01 01 20 or SI B01 07 20 for the applicable procedure for documenting, claiming, and explaining, on the RO and in the claim comments, your diagnosis work time (WT), job/repair work time (WT), and the vehicle repairs your center performed, unless otherwise required by State law.
