Work
CAUTION
The Bentley ODIS-S Brand Version MUST be at least 2.3.5 (or higher)

CAUTION
Before conducting the onward instructions, the operative MUST recheck the communication method in ODIS and ensure
that DoIP is selected before proceeding. Within ODIS-S, perform the following:
– On the right hand side, select the “Admin” tile (Within ‘Operating modes’)
– Select “GFF sequence” (Within ‘General information’ section)
– Under the “Selection of Communication path” drop-down menu, select “Only permit DoIP communication”.

CAUTION
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, ATTEMPT TO CONDUCT THE SOFTWARE UPDATE VIA THE CAN NETWORK.
ONLY DoIP SHOULD BE USED WHEN PERFORMING THE SVM UPDATE.

CAUTION
You MUST ONLY use the Diagnosis Interface VAS 6154 (WiFi Diagnostic Tool) in USB OPERATION or the CABLECONNECTED VAS 5055 for the reprogramming (updating) of the control units.
– If neither of these units are available, the VAS 5054 (A) may be used in USB MODE.
– DO NOT under any circumstances use a Bluetooth connection to conduct the reprogramming (updating) of any control
units.

Battery Charger
CAUTION
ONLY Chargers that meet the approved specification on the Mandatory Equipment List (available on the Bentley Hub)
MUST be used.
– The charger must be set to a mode where a MINIMUM of 90a is supplied to the battery during the process. Typically, this
is known as ‘Power Supply Mode’ or ‘DIAG+ Mode’.
– A voltage of exactly 14.8v must be set and maintained throughout the process.
– Please refer to the manual to ensure that these requirements are met before beginning any SVM update

Obtaining Correct SVM Code
Due to the intricacies behind Baseline Integration Levels (BiL), you must identify which SVM code each VIN requires.
Please find the applicable VIN on the attached “applicable_svm_code” document.
Note down the associated SVM code from the SVM Code column.
Keep note of this SVM code as you will be required to enter this into ODIS-S, later on in the procedure.

Preparation Before Update
Conduct a full guided fault find of the vehicle.
If a ‘Check Installation List’ pop-up appears, select ‘close’ (see below image)

Referring to TPI 2075920, address any unknown faults BEFORE conducting any of the below updates.

SVM Update
WARNING
Hybrid Vehicles use a High Voltage System and therefore MUST ONLY be work on by suitable personnel

CAUTION
During the update, switch off all unnecessary consumers. For example, ventilation, seat heaters, interior illumination,
exterior lights etc.

1. Ensure that the correct battery charger is connected to the vehicle. – Refer to the “Battery Charger” section above.
2. Select the Special Functions tab
a. Select ‘SVM – Code Input’

b. Select ‘Perform Test’
c. Enter the applicable SVM code (as per the “Obtaining Correct SVM Code” section)
3. Allow the test to run until completion.
4. If you encounter any errors during the update, please raise a FULL DISS query stating the error encountered whilst also ensuring that the
latest GFF log is uploaded online.
5. After completion of the update, perform the following
a. Turn off the ignition,
b. Remove all equipment from the car (Diagnostic tester/dongle, battery charger, keys)
c. Close all doors, windows, bonnet and boot lid
d. Lock the vehicle and allow the vehicle to perform a CAN-BUS Sleep (wait 10 minutes).
6. After 30 minutes, unlock and open the driver’s door. Turn on the ignition, re-connect the battery charger and diagnostic dongle.
7. Re-run guided fault finding and clear DTCs. If any faults are present, refer to TPI 2075920. If any of the faults present are non-sporadic,
please raise a full DISS query with a full GFF log uploaded online stating the error encountered.

Identification
Once the applicable action has been conducted, the operative must submit a warranty claim as this will show the service campaign action as
complete within Elsa Pro “Repair history”.
