CAUSE

Software error in the MULF2-High control module.

CORRECTION

Do not replace parts!

Program the vehicle with Progman V27.2.1 or higher (target data status E089-07-09-521 or higher). Refer to SI B09 05 01 - Coding, Individualization and Programming, Procedure B.

Note that Progman will automatically reprogram all programmable control units that do not have the latest software.

IMPORTANT: In the case that the vehicle is already on vehicle data status E089-07-09-521, the measures plan will show E089-07-09-521 as the target data status and will contain the prompt to program the "ULF-SBX", which must be accepted.

LABEL INSTRUCTIONS

This Service Action has been assigned code number 506 . After the vehicle has been checked and corrected, if necessary, obtain a label (SD 92-335) and:

Emboss your BMW dealer warranty number in the middle of the label (1);
Punch out code number 506 printed on the label; and
Affix the label to the B -pillar as shown.

Fig 1: Service Action Label

If the vehicle already has a label from a previous Service Action/Recall Campaign, affix the new label next to the old one. Do not affix one label on top of another one because a number from an underlying label could appear in the punched-out hole of the new label.
