Concerns:
Thermal management control unit (TME)
Information:
•
•
Customers complain that the Check Engine pilot light is on in the instrument cluster
The fault memory entry “Directional-control valve for high-temperature circuit – function implausible
(P26B100/00CB24)” is set in the thermal management control unit (TME)
Action required: In the event of a customer complaint and if a fault memory entry is set in the thermal management control
unit (TME), the software version of the thermal management control unit (TME) must be checked and
re-programmed if necessary using the PIWIS Tester with PIWIS Tester test software version 40.900.050
(or higher) installed.
Required tools
Tool:
•
•
Battery charger with a current rating of at least 90 A, e.g. VAS 5908 battery charger 90A. For
further information about the battery chargers to be used, see the corresponding Workshop Manual.
Workshop Manual '270689 Charging vehicle electrical system battery'
9900 - PIWIS Tester 3 with PIWIS Tester test software version 40.900.050 (or higher) installed
Preparatory work
NOTICE
Fault entry in the fault memory or control unit programming aborted, as the case may be, due to low voltage.
•
Increased current draw during diagnosis or control unit programming can cause a drop in voltage, which
can result in one or more fault entries and the abnormal termination of the programming process.
Before commencing work, connect a suitable battery charger with a charging current of at least 90 A to
the jump-start terminals in the engine compartment.

NOTICE
Control unit programming will be aborted if the Wi-Fi connection is unstable.
•
An unstable Wi-Fi connection can interrupt communication between the PIWIS Tester II and the vehicle
communication module (VCI). As a result, control unit programming may be aborted.
During control unit programming, always connect the PIWIS Tester to the vehicle communication module
(VCI) via the USB cable.
NOTICE
Control unit programming will be aborted if the driver’s key is not detected.
•
If the driver’s key is not detected in the vehicle, programming cannot be started or will be interrupted.
Place the driver’s key with the back facing down into the front left storage compartment in the center
console to ensure a continuous radio link between the vehicle and the driver‘s key.
