SITUATION
Due to a software error, the vehicle sporadically does not achieve sleep mode. As a result, the 12-volt
battery becomes discharged and may cause a no-start condition.
Fault code “80402F Power management, battery condition: Total discharge” is stored in the Body Domain
Controller (BDC) memory.
CAUSE
Software errors in the electronic gearbox control (EGS).
CORRECTION
Program/encode the electronic gearbox control (EGS).
PROCEDURE
In the event of a customer complaint, determine the vehicle’s current I-level by either using AIR or the ISPA
Next/AWP (Aftersales Workplace) applications. If needed, use the latest ISTA to work through test modules.
1. Work through all sections of the "Energy diagnosis" test module. Either charge or replace the vehicle battery
in accordance with the test module instructions.
NOTE: If the vehicle battery needs to be exchanged before diagnostics can be performed, do not register
the battery until the root cause has been identified. When a battery is registered, the stored energy history is
deleted. This may cause the vehicle to return if the root cause of the discharged battery is not determined.
2. Is the current vehicle integration level:
