CAUSE
Unspecified FRM door lock status due to voltage variations
CORRECTION

vehicle using ISTA/P 3.55.3 or higher.
New integration level: E89x-15-03-501 or higher
Note: ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the
latest software. For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to CenterNet / Aftersales
Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming.
Recheck the operation after the vehicle enters sleep mode.
