Affected Vehicles

Condition

After replacing the Lane assist camera control unit, the control unit cannot be coded via SVM spec/actual.

Technical Background





Some replacement electronic control units require an SVM code to code and/or parameterized when being replaced for service. This is the case with the Lane assist camera control unit for the C7 A6, A7, and D4 A8. The way to identify control units requiring SVM for installation is to look at the "REMARKS" section in EKTA for the part number (See Figure 1). If only the parts bulletin number is listed then the SVM code will be listed within this bulletin, which can be found on the ETKAinfo.com website. Often, this information can only be seen in EKTA when performing an FI Search (VIN specific search).

Production Solution

Not applicable.

Service





When replacing the Lane assist camera control unit (J894) an SVM parameterization and coding must be performed using the provided SVM code. This SVM code does not provide any software updates to the control unit.
