GROUP: Engine Electrical Systems

SITUATION

The following fault has been stored in the Digital Motor electronics (DME) fault memory with no other engine oil pressure faults stored:

This fault will not cause a customer complaint or a Check Control Message (CCM). The fault is typically identified during unrelated diagnostics.

CAUSE

Software error in the Digital Motor Electronics (DME) may cause the fault code to be erroneously stored. Only the following integration levels contain the software error.

CORRECTION

This fault should be ignored until the release of ISTA 4.12.1x.  After the release of ISTA 4.12.1x  , the vehicle should be programmed.

PROCEDURE

Prior to the release if ISTA 4.12.1x 

  1. If no other oil pressure faults are present the fault should be ignored.

After the release of ISTA 4.12.1x: 

  1. Perform diagnosis with the latest version of ISTA Next.
  2. Program the vehicle with ISTA 4.12.1x  or higher

Note that ISTA Next 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 / Programming and Diagnostics / Programming Documentation.

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.

Defect Code: 1141004500
Labor Operation: Labor Allowance: Description:
00 00 006 Refer to KSD2 Performing "vehicle test" (with vehicle diagnosis system - checking faults) (Main work)
Or:
00 00 556 Refer to KSD2 Performing "vehicle test" (with vehicle diagnosis system - checking faults) (Plus work)
And:
61 21 528 Refer to KSD2 Connect an approved battery charger/power supply (indicated in KSD2 as Charging battery)
And:
61 00 730 Refer to KSD2 Program/encode control unit(s)

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.

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
