SITUATION

With introduction of the new Headunit HU-H3 (MGU Media Graphics Unit), there is a new protection mechanism against tampering.

• MGU
• TCB Telematic Communication Box (ATM-02)
• RSE Rear Seat Entertainment and/or
• KOMBISP18 instrument cluster

Prior to re-establishing this connection, an electronic certificate must be created in the BMW backend for importing into the Vehicle.

CAUSE

After the replacement of one of the mentioned Modules, the Control Module needs a valid certificate for it to communicate with the other Modules.

CORRECTION

With introduction of ISTA 4.14.1x, the certificates can be created either automatically, or alternatively in manual steps (refer to attachment).

PROCEDURE

Refer to the attachment for the manual procedure to create a certificate in case the automatic procedure fails.
