WNS7 - Re-Programming Control Unit for Air-Conditioning System (Workshop Campaign)
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 Year:
As of 2022 up to 2023
Model Line:
Macan (95B)
Concerns:
Air-conditioning control unit
Cause:
On the affected vehicles, due to a software error, it is possible that too low current limits are
sporadically transmitted from the air-conditioning system control unit to the air conditioning
fan, especially when using the permanent driving lights.
If this is the case, the ventilation of the vehicle interior is impaired by the air conditioning fan.
Action required: Re-program the air-conditioning system control unit with the latest PIWIS Tester software version.
Minimum requirement: Version 41.400.020
Required tools
Tool:
9900 - PIWIS Tester 3
Battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A, e.g. VAS 5908 battery charger 90 A
