Technical Service Bulletin Customer states: • The message “Electrical system: fault. See owner’s manual” is displayed on the instrument cluster. • A yellow or red battery warning symbol is displayed on the instrument cluster. Workshop findings: One or more of the following DTC(s) may be stored: Battery management 2 (Battery 48V) control module, J1120 (address word 0021): • DTC P0CA700: Hybrid battery discharge current too high. ECM, J623 (address word 0001), or Gateway, J533 (address word 0019): DTC U046900: Invalid data received from starter/generator control module (Symptom 36564). Technical Background The Belt Starter Generator (BSG), together with the vehicle’s 48V system is an intelligent vehicle system that provides electrical power to the vehicle as needed. Therefore, traditional diagnosis methods, like expecting the alternator to output at full voltage any time the vehicle is running, are no longer viable, as the output power of the BSG is regulated according to the current requirements of the vehicle. For further in depth information, please refer to TSB 2067906: 27 48V Reference: diagnosis and system information. Criterion 1: A software related issue may cause the belt starter generator (BSG) to stop working as intended. Criterion 2: A hardware related issue may cause the belt starter generator (BSG) to stop working as intended. Production Solution Criterion 1: An optimized software has been implemented in current production vehicles. Criterion 2: Not Applicable. Service Check the extended ambient conditions for DTC U046900 Control unit for starter-alternator, implausible signal that is stored in the engine control module, J623 (address word 0001), or the Gateway, J533 (address word 0019).

Technical Service Bulletin Criterion 1: If the value displayed for Starter generator, actual mode 48V is not shown, or a value other than 5 is displayed (see Figure 1) please check the software version of the BSG (address word 00CC). If the software is older than, but not including SW 0527, please update the BSG via the SVM update instructions at the end of this TSB, then follow up with the checks listed under Criterion 2. Figure 1: Extended ambient data in ODIS GFF log. Criterion 2: If the value displayed for Starter generator, actual mode 48V is 5, or otherwise, if the software of the BSG already is at SW 0527 or was updated under Criterion 1, perform the following diagnostic steps to determine if the belt starter generator is the root cause of the customer complaint: 1. Select OBD in ODIS, then select 00CC - Starter Generator >> Measurement Values. 2. Select the following measurement values for display: • [IDE12494]_Voltages • [IDE12495]_Torques • [VO]_operation_mode 3. Disconnect the battery charger from the vehicle, start the engine. The vehicle should idle in park. Page 3 of 7 © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. All rights reserved.

Technical Service Bulletin 4. Determine if the measurement values are within their specified tolerances: [IDE12494]_Voltages Voltage of terminal 87 Values between 11.6V and 15V are normal – If the voltage is below 11.6V, please recharge or replace the 12V battery as required by the appropriate test plan. Voltage of terminal 40 Values between 40V and 50V are normal – If the voltage is between 0V and 12V, please check the 48V battery. [IDE12495]_Torques - The specified torque indicates if the BSG is supposed to provide electrical power to the vehicle or not. The engine control module determines if and how much torque the BSG is supposed to generate. - The starter-alternator torque indicates if the BSG is actually producing electrical power when the engine control module requires it to do so. If the BSG is working correctly, both torque levels should be similar (within 5 Nm of each other). If both torque values are 0, attempt to force the vehicle into providing electrical power from the BSG by turning the steering wheel several times to both end stops and back. You can also activate auxiliary system, like the HVAC blower to high, rear window heating, seat heaters to increase the electrical load on the vehicle. [VO]_operation_mode current status of the BSG When assessing the BSG, refer to the following table Specified torque (in Nm) Starter-alternator torque (in Nm) Operation_mode_actual Recommendation 0 0 Standby No charging demand = do not replace belt-driven starter-alternator Page 4 of 7 © 2023 Audi of America, Inc.

This however is outside of the scope of this TSB. SVM Update Instructions 1. Follow all instructions in TSB 2011732: 00 Software Version management (SVM), operating instructions. 2.
