Service Technical Information 50/21 ENU AMA2 6 AMA2 - Replacing Seat Occupancy Detection System for Passenger Seat (USA/Canada) (Recall Campaign) Revision: This bulletin replaces bulletin Group 6 50/21 AMA2, dated November 4, 2021. Model Year: As of 2015 up to 2018 Important: CRITICAL WARNING -This campaign includes steps where control unit(s) in the vehicle will be programmed with the PIWIS Tester. The vehicle voltage must be maintained between 13.5 volts and 14.5 volts during this programming. Failure to maintain this voltage could result in damaged control unit(s). Damage caused by inadequate voltage during programming is not a warrantable defect. The technician must verify the actual vehicle voltage in the PIWIS Tester before starting the campaign and also document the actual voltage on the repair order. Model Line: Macan Equipment: Country equipment USA (C02)/Canada (C36) Concerns: Seat occupancy detection system for passenger seat Information: Sensor mats for seat occupancy detection, on which the conductive fabric can break, were installed in the passenger seat on the affected vehicles. If the conductive fabric breaks, the front airbags on the passenger's side will be deactivated because correct seat occupancy detection can no longer be guaranteed. The airbag warning light and Passenger Airbag OFF light will be activated in order to alert the driver. Action required: Replace the seat occupancy detection system according to the campaign scope assigned to the respective vehicle. Information To find out which campaign scope is assigned to the respective vehicle for replacing the seat occupancy detection system, see PIWIS Vehicle Information. The part numbers of the parts required for the respective vehicle are specified in the assigned scope for “Replacing seat occupancy detection system for passenger seat". For an overview of the campaign scopes, see: Technical Information 'Warranty processing' Affected Vehicles: Only vehicles assigned to the campaign (see also PCSS Vehicle Information). AfterSales Nov 24, 2021 Page 1 of 18 6 Service AMA2 ENU Technical Information 50/21 Spare parts information Information When replacing the occupant classification components, all coordinated components (padding, sensor mat and control unit) in the repair kit must be replaced. Due to worldwide semiconductor bottlenecks at individual suppliers, we were unfortunately unable to include the corresponding occupant classification control units in the repair kit as part of this campaign. To avoid delay in the implementation of this measure, the occupant classification control unit installed in the vehicle is reused in this particular case. 1 2 – Padding with affixed sensor mat - replace – Occupant classification control unit - reuse When implementing this measure, pay particular attention to the following: Contents of occupant classification system repair kit • The sensor mat for the occupant classification system must not be removed from the foam part. • Mixed installation, e.g. “old” padding and “new” sensor mat, is not permitted. • The existing control unit for occupant classification must not be removed and must be reprogrammed with the provided programming box. • The one-time procurement of the required programming box can be found in the section "Required tools". • The direct programming of the control unit occupant classification with the currently valid software is only approved and released within the scope of this campaign. • After carrying out this campaign, in the event of a further repair case, the usual repair concept with complete replacement of all components (including control units) for occupant classification must be used. Information Between delivery of the padding to its installation in the front seat, the glued sensor mat can partially detach from the foam part over longer periods of time. This does not constitute a material defect and will have no influence on the quality of the sensor mat. Nov 24, 2021 Page 2 of 18 AfterSales Service Technical Information 50/21 ENU AMA2 6 Overview of padding If the sensor mat has come loose as shown in the picture, then the sensor mat must be pressed back in place before installation as shown in pictures A, B, C. Complete adhesive strength is only achieved after attaching or clamping the seat cover. Required tools Information Purchasing the "AMA2 ReProgramming Tool" programming box A special programming box is required to program the occupant classification control unit with the software required for the padding including sensor mat. This programming box, including its wiring harness, can be obtained from the online shop of TKR Automotive GmbH. One programming box is provided for each affected Porsche dealer. Only one programming boxmay therefore be ordered for each affected Porsche dealer.

Cable set with connections to cigarette lighter and control unit Please read the following information about processing the campaign: Nov 24, 2021 Page 4 of 18 • If the programming box was ordered on account, the invoice to TKR Automotive GmbH must be paid within the 14-day payment period. • The programming box must only be invoiced once for the first vehicle during warranty processing at AMA2 programming box each Porsche dealer. Only the required materials and working time must be invoiced in the campaign claim for the remaining vehicles on which work is carried out as part of this campaign at the Porsche dealer. • For warranty processing, the Part No. AMA20000002 with the "programming box" designation can be invoiced as an additional part in the warranty claim. Cost: $1,785. • The shipping costs must only be invoiced once for the first vehicle during warranty processing by specifying Part No. AMA20000003 with the designation "Shipping costs" as an additional part AfterSales Service Technical Information 50/21 ENU AMA2 6 and using the amount as per invoice. For all other vehicles, only the materials and working time must be invoiced in the warranty claim. Tools: • Document a copy of the invoice in the warranty claim. • 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 9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 VAS 6095A Engine and gearbox bracket VAS 6136 Seat repair stand VAG 1634B Cushion clip pliers Torque wrench 2 - 10 Nm (1.5 - 7.5 ftlb.), e.g. VAG 1783 torque wrench, 2 - 10 Nm (1.5 - 7.5 ftlb.)
