Service Technical Information 144/21 ENU 4770 4 "Chassis Fault" Warning/Fault Memory Entry "C059500" in the Brake Booster Control Unit (144/21) Vehicle Type: Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (971)/Panamera 4S E-Hybrid (971)/Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid (971) Model Year: As of 2017 up to 2021 Concerns: Brake booster control unit Information: • • The yellow warning 'Chassis fault – Adapted driving permitted' is displayed in the instrument cluster. The warning message sometimes appears together with a noticeably stiffer and slightly vibrating brake pedal. The fault memory entry 'C059500 – Brake booster control unit – power level implausible (00E900)' is stored in the fault memory of the brake booster control unit. This is caused by a temporary (individual) or permanent internal overcurrent detected in the brake booster control unit. Action required: In the event of a customer complaint, re-code the brake booster control unit using PIWIS Tester software version 40.550.022 (or higher). Required tools Tools: • • 9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 with PIWIS Tester software version 40.550.022 (or higher) installed Battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A and - if required - also with a current and voltage-controlled charge map for lithium starter batteries, e.g. VAS 5908 Battery charger, 90 A For further information about the battery chargers to be used, see Workshop Manual '270689 Charging vehicle electrical system battery'. Preparatory work NOTICE Fault entry in the fault memory and/or control unit coding aborted due to undervoltage. • Increased current draw during diagnosis or control unit coding can cause a drop in voltage, which can result in one or more fault entries and the abnormal termination of the coding process. Before starting control unit coding, connect a suitable battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A to the vehicle. NOTICE Coding will be aborted if the WiFi connection is unstable. AfterSales Oct 22, 2021 Page 1 of 4 4 Service Technical Information ENU 144/21 4770 • An unstable WiFi connection can interrupt communication between the PIWIS Tester and the vehicle communication module (VCI). As a result, coding may be aborted. During control unit coding, always connect the PIWIS Tester to the vehicle communication module (VCI) via the USB cable. NOTICE Control unit coding will be aborted if the driver's key is not recognized • If the driver's key is not recognized in the vehicle, coding cannot be started or will be interrupted. Place the driver's key with the back facing down in the area in front of the storage compartment under the armrest (emergency start tray) in order to guarantee a permanent radio link between the vehicle and driver's key. Work Procedure: 1 Connect a suitable battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A, e.g. Battery charger 90A, to the jump-start terminals in the luggage compartment and switch it on. Workshop Manual '270689 Charging vehicle electrical system battery' 2 Place driver's key in emergency start tray. 3 Connect 9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 to the vehicle communication module (VCI) via the USB cable. Then connect the communication module to the vehicle and switch on the PIWIS Tester. 4 Switch on the ignition. 5 On the PIWIS Tester start screen, call up the 'Diagnostics' application. The vehicle type is then read out, the diagnostic application is started and the control unit selection screen is populated. Emergency start tray Re-coding brake booster control unit NOTICE Use of a PIWIS Tester software version that is older than the prescribed version. • Measure is ineffective Always use the specified version or a higher version of the PIWIS Tester software for control unit coding. Oct 22, 2021 Page 2 of 4 AfterSales Service Technical Information 144/21 ENU 4770 4 Information The procedure described here is based on the PIWIS Tester 3 software version 40.550.022. The PIWIS Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy, these are the instructions that must be followed. A discrepancy may arise with later software versions for example. Work Procedure: 1 Re-code brake booster control unit automatically. Required PIWIS software version: 40.550.022 (or higher) Type of control unit coding: Control unit coding using the 'Automatic coding' function for the brake booster control unit: 'Brake booster' control unit – 'Coding/programming' menu – 'Automatic coding' function. Read and follow the information and instructions on the PIWIS Tester during the guided procedure. Coding sequence: Do not interrupt coding. When coding is complete, the message “Coding has been completed successfully” is displayed and a tick appears in the 'Status' box. Procedure if control unit coding is not successful: Repeat control unit coding. Concluding work Work Procedure: 1 Read out the fault memory and check any existing fault memory entries. Information If control units are found to have faults that are not caused by the fault described here, these must be found and corrected. 2 Delete the fault memory. 3 Switch off ignition. 4 Disconnect 9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 from the vehicle. 5 Remove the driver's key from the emergency start tray. 6 Disconnect the battery charger.
