CAUSE
The wiring harness below the micro filter housing (right front area of the bulkhead) is damaged from washer
fluid leaking into the harness.
CORRECTION
Check and replace the right front “repair” wiring harness (improved part) listed below.
PROCEDURE
1. Perform a vehicle test with ISTA and if the faults listed above are stored, proceed to the next step.
2. Inspect the wiring for damage.
3. Remove the right front wheel and wheel arch cover.
4. Remove the micro filter housing.
5. Inspect the harness coming though the bulkhead in the right front engine compartment area for any signs
of swollen wires (remove the electrical tape to expose the wires).
6. If the wires are swollen, refer to the attached procedure to install a repair wiring harness and to check and
correct the washer fluid line leak.
Always connect a BMW approved battery charger / power supply(SI B04 23 10).

Refer to KSD2/AIR for the corresponding flat rate unit (FRU) allowance.
Other Repairs
If the wiring is found not to be the cause and performing the ISTA diagnostics and related test plans results with
other eligible and covered work, claim this work with the applicable defect code and labor operations listed in

KSD2.
Overlapping Labor Procedure – Other Repairs
If invoicing the KSD2 flat rate labor operation codes for other repair work results in overlapping labor, for those
flat rate labor operations that are affected, you can now:

Replace the stated KSD2 “FRU allowance” with a “reduced FRU value” to eliminate the overlapping labor.
For help in identifying the overlapping labor, please refer to the AIR FRU Plausibility Check (Overlapping Labor
Tool) that is located in the AIR Client.
Eligible other repair work being claimed under a different defect code will require separate punch times.
On the repair order and in the claim comment section, please identify and itemize those labor operations being
claimed with a “reduced FRU value.”
