MODEL 219, MODEL YEAR 2006
PROGRAMMING BATTERY CONTROL MODULE
SERVICE INFORMATION
This Service Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that on the affected vehicles (see VIN range below) implausible or illogical messages can appear in the instrument cluster which will result in certain electrical consumers being shut down. This is caused by the battery control unit erroneously evaluating the battery charge level as good when the actual charge level may be insufficient.
Please review the Effective Serial Number chart located below and if necessary repair the subject vehicles during the vehicle's next service.
Prior to performing this Service Campaign:
- Please check VMI to insure the vehicle is involved and to determine if the vehicle has been previously repaired.
- Please review the entire Service Campaign bulletin.
Approximately 152,949 vehicles are affected.
