WMG0 – Retrofitting Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) Control Unit (Stop Delivery)

Important:

CRITICAL WARNING -This campaign includes steps where control unit(s) in the vehicle will be
programmed with the PIWIS Tester. The vehicle voltage must be maintained between 13.5 volts and 14.5
volts during this programming. Failure to maintain this voltage could result in damaged control unit(s).
Damage caused by inadequate voltage during programming is not a warrantable defect. The technician
must verify the actual vehicle voltage in the PIWIS Tester before starting the campaign and also document
the actual voltage on the repair order.

Model Year:

As of 2021 up to 2022

Model Line:

Cayenne (9YA/9YB)

Concerns:

Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) control unit

Information:

Due to worldwide semiconductor shortages experienced by some suppliers, the affected
vehicles were built without the control unit for the Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) system is therefore not available on these vehicles.

Action required: Retrofit Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) control unit.
Affected
Vehicles:

Only vehicles assigned to the campaign (see also PCSS Vehicle Information).

NOTICE
Fault entry in the fault memory and/or control unit coding aborted due to undervoltage.
•

Increased current draw during diagnosis or control unit coding can cause a drop in voltage, which can
result in one or more fault entries and the abnormal termination of the coding process.



Before starting control unit coding, connect a suitable battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A
to the vehicle.
NOTICE

Coding will be aborted if the WiFi connection is unstable.
•

An unstable WiFi connection can interrupt communication between the PIWIS Tester and the vehicle
communication module (VCI). As a result, coding may be aborted.



During control unit coding, always connect the PIWIS Tester to the vehicle communication module (VCI) via
the USB cable.
NOTICE

Control unit coding will be aborted if the driver's key is not recognized
•

If the driver's key is not recognized in the vehicle, coding cannot be started or will be interrupted.



Position the driver's key with its back in the rear area of the left cupholder (emergency start tray) to
guarantee a permanent radio link between the vehicle and driver's key.

Information
The procedure described here is based on the PIWIS Tester 3 software version 40.300.020.
The PIWIS Tester instructions take precedence and in the event of a discrepancy, these are the
instructions that must be followed.
A discrepancy may arise with later software versions for example.
Work Procedure: 1

Connect a battery charger that is suitable for lithium starter batteries with a current rating of at least
90 A (e.g. Battery charger 90A) to the jump-start terminals in the engine compartment.
For instructions, see  Workshop Manual '2706IN External power connection, jump-lead starting'.

2

Position the driver's key in the rear area of the left
cupholder in the center console between the holding
struts (emergency start tray) in order to guarantee a
permanent radio link between the vehicle and driver's
key  Emergency start tray.

3

Connect 9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 to the vehicle
communication module (VCI) via the USB cable.
Then connect the communication module to the
vehicle and switch on the PIWIS Tester.

4

Switch on the ignition.

5

On the PIWIS Tester start screen, call up the 'Diagnostics' application.

The vehicle type is then read out, the diagnostic application is started and the control unit selection
screen is populated.
6

Re-code Tire Pressure Monitoring (TPM) control unit automatically.
Required PIWIS Tester software version:

40.300.020 (or higher)

Type of control unit coding:

Control unit coding using the 'Automatic coding'
function for the control unit:
'Tire pressure monitoring' control unit –
'Coding/programming' menu – 'Automatic
coding' function.

Read and follow the information and instructions
on the PIWIS Tester during the guided procedure.

Coding sequence:

Do not interrupt coding.
When coding is complete, the message “Coding has
been completed successfully” is displayed and a tick
appears in the 'Status' box.
Procedure if control unit coding is not
successful:

Select 'Tire pressure monitoring' control unit.

7.2

Select the 'Maintenance/repairs' menu.

7.3

Select 'Teach wheel IDs' and press •F12“ ('Next') to confirm.
Follow the instructions on the PIWIS Tester during the menu-guided procedure.
Information
You will then be prompted to relieve the tire pressure on all tires one after the other for
approx. 5 seconds.
