AFFECTED VEHICLES
Vehicles which require this campaign to be completed will show it as “Open” when checked either in AIR,
AWP, Campaign Summary or Warranty Vehicle Inquiry.
Please make sure you check your dealer inventory as soon as possible. You can see a list of affected
vehicles in Inventory Campaign Details (ICD) under ROSS.

SITUATION
BMW AG has issued a Delivery Stop (effective February 9, 2023) on certain Model Year 2022 – 2023 BMW
vehicles that were produced between June 29, 2022 and February 16, 2023. This was originally called
“Wireless Charging Tray”.
Software in potentially affected vehicles may not recognize the removal of the digital key (Key Card or
mobile phone) from the wireless charging tray, and thereby not meeting a federal requirement.
On February 17 2023, the Delivery Stop was upgraded to a Non-Compliance Recall (see SI B84 01 23). SI
B84 01 23 outlined a procedure for vehicles at that time which werea) in BMW center inventory
b) already delivered to customers
This new SI B84 03 23 addresses vehicles which were in BMW center inventory or at the Vehicle
Distribution Center (VDC) at that time.

Those vehicles had the Key Card removed and were able to be retailed to the customer
Such vehicles now need to return to the center to receive a new Key Card and updated programming
Please note that vehicles which were already in customer hands will be addressed by an update to SI
B84 01 23

CAUSE
Unfavorable software causes the vehicle to not detect when the digital key (mobile phone/BMW Key Card)
is removed from the wireless charging station (WCA). It is still possible to operate the window regulators,

sunroof and convertible top for a certain period of time until the vehicle is locked, despite the digital key
being removed from the WCA.

CORRECTION
Order a replacement Digital Key Card for the vehicle and program the complete vehicle with ISTA 4.41.1x
(release date of May 2, 2023).
The updated programming will enable the Key Card to be functional and meet the federal requirement.

PROCEDURE
First, program the vehicle to I-level S18A-23-03-550 or higher using ISTA 4.41.1x or later
Connect the battery charger to the vehicle
Connect the programming system to the vehicle (ISTA 4)
Determine measures plan
Accept and fully work through the measures plan with the control units to be programmed/encoded
and enabled
Follow the rework list
Depending on the rework list, carry out a vehicle test and delete the fault memory if needed
After the programming has been fully completed, check the functionality of the system.
Note: ISTA will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the
latest software.
Always connect a BMW-approved battery charger/power supply (SIB 04 23 10).
For information on programming and coding with ISTA, refer to Dealer Universal Portal / TIS / Technical
Documentation / Diagnostics and Programming / Programming Documentation.
Next, order a replacement Digital Key Card and verify correct operation.
