SUBJECT
MDrive Buttons Are Not Functioning After Programming
SITUATION
The MDrive buttons may not be functioning on M vehicles which have been programmed to one of the following integration levels:
- F020-15-07-500
- F020-15-07-501
- F020-15-07-502
- F020-15-07-503
CAUSE
DME software (MDrive signal monitoring error)
PROCEDURE
Do not replace any parts!
Program the vehicle using the latest version of ISTA/P (3.56.3 or higher).
Target integration (new): F020-15-07-504 or higher.
Submit a PuMA case entitled "IRAP for Mdrive buttons" to flash to the F056-15-07-504 integration level.
Note that ISTA/P 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 B 04 23 10 ).
For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to Centernet / Aftersales Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming.
