DESCRIPTION: A new PAM (Parking Assistance Module) was introduced 2009w23, but due to PAM warranty replacements or accessory installations, it can also be fitted in older cars.

Due to a SW bug, VIDA can not read DTC from this PAM. The PAM unit will be "green" in the DTC view in VIDA, even if there are DTC's set.

PRODUCT MODIFICATION: New PAM SW has been introduced.

SERVICE: If there is a problem with the parking assistance system and suspect that there is a DTC set even though VIDA states that there is no DTC, perform the following:

Upgrade the PAM SW. Download PAM upgrade, P/N 30728074.

Now it will be possible to read the DTC from PAM with VIDA.
