5. Read out DTC memory for the BAS, ETS, ME and ETC systems.

Note DTC readout is not possible using an impulse counter scan tool.
DTC s, Actual values, and activation for the BAS system are contained within the HHT menu: ESP

Control module adaption:
After replacing either the ESP/SPS control module (N47-5) or the brake booster (A7/7), it is absolutely necessary to perform an adaption of the ESP/SPS conmtrol module (N47-5) as well.
The ESP/SPS control module (N47-5) has to learn the values for the BAS solenoid valve (A7/7y1), see HHT menu.

In case of complaint, and no fault is present in system, perform 23 in its entirety.
