Correction service message


Correction of service message is used to adjust CBS condition-based service in case of an incorrectly performed service reset.

The following service messages can be corrected depending on model and model year.

The vehicle inspection and emissions check are country-specific and therefore do not apply to all countries. It is possible to activate or deactivate these service messages under the selection "Configuration vehicle inspection" and "Configuration emissions check". Note that emissions check shall only be activated in China.

Note:

The original value of CBS condition-based service will disappear during the correction.

When correcting service message for brakes front and brakes rear, the thickness of the brake pad should be measured. The brake pads' wear sensors are divided in different steps, if the entered value is not accepted by the control unit, availability factor 255%, it is necessary to repeat the function and increase or decrease the value of the brake pads until the value is accepted by the control unit and a correct availability factor is reached.
