Workshop Findings
•

DTC C10EF04 evident within Diagnostic address 29 Light control left and/or 39 Light control right

Technical background
A software error in the headlight control modules can lead to malfunctions with the front Daytime Running Lights.

Production change
All VIN’s from SCBDS33S0LC075717 are not affected

Measure
The software of address 29 – Light control left and address 39 – Light control right require reprogramming.
This software reprograming take place via two separate SVM codes.

Software reprogramming
General information for the reprogramming:
• The closed-circuit voltage of the vehicle must be at least 12.5 V during the reprogramming. Connect the battery of the
vehicle to an external power supply. For further information see the Maintenance manual.
• During the reprogramming switch off all unnecessary consumers (ventilation, seat heater, inside light).
• Because of the highest transmission stability we recommend the use of the diagnosis interface VAS 6154 (WiFi diagnostic
tool) only in the USB operation or the cable-connected VAS 5055 for the reprogramming (updating) of control units. If these
units are not available, the diagnosis interface VAS 5054 (A) can also be used in USB mode

1. Select and run Guided fault finding. Within the Special functions tab select SVM – Code Input then select Perform test (Figure 1).

Figure 1
2. On the next screen enter the SVM code 37029LF01 and select Adopt (Figure 2).

Figure 2
3. On the following screen, confirm the code then select Yes.
4. All control modules will now be interrogated.
5. The software of the left headlight control module will then be reprogrammed, (Figure 3).

Figure 3
6. Once this is complete you will get a confirmation message that the all actions have been completed successfully. Select Done/Continue, the
following screen will bring up a summary of the actions, again select Done/Continue (Figure 5). Follow on screen prompts until program end.
7. Now complete steps 1-6 using SVM code 37039LF01. The right headlight control module will now be reprogrammed.
8. After the update programming is complete, gear selection will not be possible. To wake up the system a bus silence is required, carry out the

following steps in the order stated below;
•

Switch off the ignition

•

Remove the diagnostic interface from the OBD port

•

Switch off and remove the battery charger from the vehicle

•

Close the bonnet and all doors then lock the vehicle

•

Wait 5 minutes so that the vehicle goes into bus silence

•

When 5 minutes has elapsed, unlock the vehicle and open the driver’s door

•

Switch on the ignition

•

Confirm that the gear selection is now possible
