Initial publication

The vehicle is equipped with the MIB3 MMI system, and one or both of the following conditions exist.
1. The key user cannot be set in the vehicle with an error message of "the vehicle code is incorrect" or "there was
a connection error."
2. The myAudi login cannot be performed with an error message: "the login could not be performed. Please try
again later."

Technical Background
Key User Pairing
For all models supporting remote services via the myAudi app (MY18+), the key user pairing can be completed
using one of the following methods.
• Enter the vehicle code from the plastic key tag or the Activation card (whichever was provided by the factory)
and complete the key user pairing directly in the MMI: HOME >> USERS >> GEAR ICON (top right) >>
• The vehicle code is entered into the myAudi app, and the myAudi login (using email and password) is
successfully performed in the MMI within 72hrs of each other.
• The customer is registered by the dealer using the myAudi customer registration application (found at:
www.AccessAudi.com), and the myAudi login is successfully performed in the MMI within 72hrs of each other.
• Additionally, the AudieBay logo Digital Business Support team can help the customer set key user remotely after
verifying ownership of the vehicle.
myAudi login in MMI
For all vehicles with the MIB3 MMI system, the myAudi login is possible in the vehicle. However, a ConBox
software error can prevent a successful login. This software issue doesn't present itself for every vehicle and can
be intermittent or permanent for a specific vehicle. Please see the Service section if there are errors during the
login via the MMI.

Production Solution
Key User Pairing: A backend change was made in Q1/23 to allow setting directly in the MMI (previously
unavailable for MY22+).

Technical Service Bulletin
myAudi Login: New software implemented in late MY22 and all MY23 production vehicles.

Service
Key User Pairing Troubleshooting
For errors adding the vehicle code into the myAudi app or the MMI:
• Please ensure the vehicle code is the correct code for the vehicle.
• MY20-21 cars will have the last seven digits of the VIN listed on the outside of the plastic key tag. If a plastic
key tag was replaced using the spare parts process, it would not have the VIN listed outside.
• For MY22 Q5, please see TSB 2065729, 91 AudieBay logo connect: adding vehicle code fails with the message "Vehicle
code could not be verified."
• If a message of "Please wait" is shown indefinitely, please see TSB 2064385, 91 AudieBay logo connect GEN3: Key
User pairing in vehicle fails in the MMI.
• For all other MY22 vehicles, if an error is experienced and the code is verified as correct for the car, please
register the customer again in the myAudi customer registration application. Registering the customer will
automatically set the preliminary key user in the AudieBay logo connect backend. To complete key user pairing, perform
the myAudi login in the MMI within 72hrs. If the customer is already logged into the MMI, the user must be
logged out and then perform the login again.
The 72hr period must be observed when performing the myAudi login. This requirement was designed to add a
layer of security to the key user pairing process. If the myAudi login was completed more than 72hrs before the
customer registration is performed or more than 72hrs before the vehicle code was added to the myAudi app,
then the customer must log out of the MMI and perform the myAudi login again to complete the key user pairing. If
the customer experiences an issue with the myAudi login, please the next section, “myAudi login via the MMI
Troubleshooting.”
The myAudi login via the MMI Troubleshooting
For errors completing the myAudi login in the vehicle using the MMI:
For Model Year 2022 vehicles with MIB3
Check in ElsaPro for one of the following open campaigns.
• 90T6 ConBox Software Update (NVLW)
• 91CQ ConBox Software Update (NVLW)
If a campaign is open, perform the ConBox software update and perform the myAudi login again.
• If all campaigns are marked complete in ElsaPro, then use ODIS to check the software version of the J949 Emergency call module (diagnostic address 0075). The updated software version will be 0372 or higher.
For Model Year 2021 vehicles with MIB3
Check in ElsaPro for the following open campaign
• 91DZ - Rearview Camera Software Update

Technical Service Bulletin
If a campaign is open, perform ALL of the software updates (MMI, ConBox, and Gateway) and perform the
myAudi login again.
If the campaign is marked complete in ElsaPro, then use ODIS to check the software version of the J949 Emergency call module (diagnostic address 0075). The updated software version will be 0372 or higher.
For Model Year 2020 A4 and A5 with MIB3
Check in ElsaPro for the following TSB.
• TSB 2067021, 91 MIB3: Garage door opener / SXM / Online Radio grayed out, connectivity issues and various
malfunctions (CLU35)
Perform ALL of the software updates (MMI, ConBox, and Gateway) and perform the myAudi login again.
Additional Troubleshooting for all models and model years
• Check that the customer has a 4-Digit S-PIN set in the myAudi app. This setting can be found using the
following path: myAudi account profile icon (lower right) >> Account Settings >> PIN. If the only option is
to "Set PIN," then there is no S-PIN set, and the customer will need to set a 4-digit S-PIN to complete the
myAudi login.
• Otherwise, have the customer use the "Change PIN" or "Forgot PIN" option and then retry the myAudi login.
• Please keep in mind, that if the key user is currently set, using the “Change PIN” will temporarily deactivate the
remote function in the myAudi app. To reactivate, go to the app section titled “User management,” All
functions >> User management >> Select Name for Key user >> Scroll down and select “Reactivate”
• If the key user is currently set, using “Forgot PIN” will remove key user temporarily until the myAudi login is
performed. Otherwise, the customer will need to remove the VIN from their myAudi account via the app, and
perform the key user pairing again in the MMI (or perform preliminary key user via the app).
• Check to see if the VIN is added to the customer's myAudi account in the myAudi app.
• If the VIN is not present, add the VIN to their account and retry the myAudi login.
• If the VIN is present in the app, then remove the VIN by navigating back to the vehicle list screen that shows
the VIN number and the vehicle image. Then swipe right to left over the vehicle image and select "Delete." Add
the VIN back along with the vehicle code into the app; removing the VIN will also reset the key user if this was
previously set.
• If after performing the previous steps the login still fails, then open a ticket with the Digital Business Support
team via the web ticketing system found at https://Audi.Zendesk.com/
