Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 69 number 22-84 dated February 10, 2022, for reasons listed below. Model(s) Year All Audi Vehicles 2015 – 2024 VIN Range Vehicle-Specific Equipment All Not Applicable Condition REVISION HISTORY Revision Date Purpose 4 - Revised header (Add model year) 3 02/10/2022 Revised header (Added model year and corrected an Elsa display issue) Revised Service (Added repair information) 2 09/14/2021 Revised header (Added Model Years 2021 – 2022 and corrected an Elsa display issue) Customer states: • The airbag warning light is illuminated in the instrument cluster. Workshop findings: The following DTC is stored in the airbag control module, J234, (address word 0015): • DTC B13BCF2 (Multiple collision brake No function) and can be active/static or passive/sporadic. Technical Background The “Multiple collision brake” is controlled by the ABS control module, J104, (address word 0003) and part of the ABS/ESC functionality. If the ABS control module detects an ABS/ESC relevant error, the “Multiple collision brake” is deactivated. In addition, the ESC and airbag warning lights are turned on in the instrument cluster and DTC B13BCF2 is stored in the airbag control module. If the brake system relevant error is passive/sporadic and not detected again, the ESC warning light is turned off after the next ignition cycle. Any DTCs that were stored in the ABS control module will be erased after 40 ignition cycles if not detected again. Page 1 of 3 © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. All rights reserved.

Technical Service Bulletin In contrast, the airbag warning light will stay on permanently until the DTC B13BCF2 in the airbag control module is erased manually. The “Multiple collision brake” will stay deactivated as long as DTC B13BCF2 is stored in the airbag control module. Tip: The airbag warning light indicates that the “Multiple collision brake” has been deactivated by the brake control module. It is a symptom/indicator, not the root cause for the deactivation. Production Solution Not Applicable Service 1. Connect vehicle to ODIS Service and perform a scan with GFF. Follow GFF for any DTCs that could have caused the deactivation of the ABS/ESC functionality. If these DTCs are present, follow GFF to determine and eliminate the root cause. Once the root cause has been eliminated, delete DTC B13BCF2 in the airbag control module. 2. If no DTCs were present that could explain the deactivation of the ABS/ESC functionality, erase the DTC B13BCF2 in the airbag control module. 3. If DTC B13BCF2 cannot be cleared, disconnect the scan tool from the DLC. Park the vehicle, witch the ignition off, and then lock the vehicle. After 30 minutes attempt to clear the DTC again. Once B13BCF2 has been cleared, road test the vehicle to verify that no faults return. 4. Release the vehicle to the customer without attempting any additional repairs if no faults are returned. 5. If the customer experiences this concern again, a vehicle scan with GFF should be performed immediately to determine the root cause. Note: Replacing the airbag control module does not solve this issue. Claims for replaced parts will be subject to review. Warranty Claim Type: • 110 up to 48 Months/50,000 Miles. • G10 for CPO Covered Vehicles – Verify Owner. • If the vehicle is outside any warranty, this Technical Service Bulletin is informational only.
