Temperature Regulation Of Automatic Climate Control System Is Not Acceptable (SI B64 01 18)
Publication date: 2018-02-01Reference number: SI B64 01 18
TEMPERATURE REGULATION OF AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM IS NOT ACCEPTABLE
TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN
| BMW: | G01 (X3); G12 (7 Series); G30 (5 Series Sedan); G32 (6 Series Gran Turismo); Produced through December 10, 2017 |
| GROUP: | Heating and Air Conditioning |
SITUATION
Air distribution and/or temperature regulation variation exceeds design parameters. System does not maintain the environment close enough to selected temperature.
CAUSE
Software error in the IHKA (Integrated Automatic Heating/Air Conditioning) - Control Unit.
CORRECTION
Diagnose with ISTA and reprogram.
PROCEDURE
For conditions that are similar to the situation described:
- Perform diagnosis with the latest version of ISTA, working through test module, if needed.
- Program the vehicle using ISTA 4.09.1x or higher.
| G01, G12, G30, G32 | Target integration level: S15A-17-11-540 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 ) .
For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to CenterNet / TIS / Technical Documentation / Diagnostics and Programming / Programming Documentation.
PARTS INFORMATION
Parts replacement will not provide a solution to this situation.
WARRANTY INFORMATION
Covered under the terms of the BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks or the BMW Certified Pre-Owned Program.

e-Vehicles
| Labor Operation: | Labor Allowance: | Description: |
|---|---|---|
| 61 25 910 | Refer to KSD2 | Recharging high-voltage battery unit (to high voltage charging socket) |
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.
Refer to KSD2/AIR for the corresponding flat rate unit (FRU) allowances.
Work time labor operation code 61 00 006 is not considered a Main labor operation; however, it does require an individual punch time and an explanation on the repair order and in the claim comments section.
During the same workshop visit, if a vehicle also requires another Technical Campaign or repair that also includes programming and encoding the control units, the programming procedure may only be invoiced one time
Vehicle Programming and Encoding
- 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 under the defect code listed in this bulletin with the applicable KSD2/AIR labor operations.
Please explain this additional work (The why and what) on the repair order in the claim comments section.
- For control module failures that occurred "prior" to performing this programming procedure; and/or
- Other work/repairs that results from performing ISTA diagnostics and the related test plans:
- When "covered" under an applicable limited warranty, claim this control module-related repair work using the applicable defect code and labor operations (including diagnosis) in KSD2/AIR.
