CBS Reset In Vehicle







CBS Reset in Vehicle

CBS Maintenance operations in the instrument cluster and deadlines for legally stipulated vehicle inspections or emissions tests can be reset or entered in the Control Display in the vehicle. Generally it is recommended that the CBS items are reset using the diagnosis system (see "CBS Reset with Diagnosis System" please refer to: Resetting CBS With the Diagnosis System).

Important:
Before resetting in the instrument cluster, check with the tester that the vehicle's internal days counter is correct. Please refer to: CBS Vehicle Data Correction With the Diagnosis System

Resetting the Service Items

Observe the following process for resetting:
- Close all doors and windows.

1. Without pressing the brake pedal. Put key in ignition. Switch on the ignition/terminal 15. (If equipped with a Start/Stop button, press Start/Stop button.) The accessory mode, radio and heater should/will have function.








2. Allow the instrument cluster lights and beeping to initiate. Press the "Check" button (-red arrow-) on the turn signal stalk to display the date (-red arrow-).

NOTE: If instrument cluster lights did not cycle as stated in step 2, reset procedure must be restarted beginning from step 1.





3. Press the trip odometer button (-red arrow-) (located just below speedometer on left side of instrument cluster) and hold.








You will see the warning triangle (-red arrow-)in the display between the speedometer and tachometer, continue to hold until you see a service maintenance item appear (-red arrow-). When service maintenance item appears, immediately release button.

NOTE: CBS items are arranged chronologically according to remaining distance or remaining time. The most critical item generally is displayed first.







4. Use the trip odometer button to step through all of the service checks (oil service, smog, spark plug service, rear brake pad, front brake pad, brake fluid, etc).








5. When the desire item is reached and the value is to be reset, press the trip odometer button again until "Reset?" appears.











6. Release trip button. Confirm the reset by repressing and holding the button again until the display shows "-------" followed by the mileage interval.

7. Release trip button.

8. Turn ignition key into off position and release key or press the Start Stop Engine button to turn off the accessory mode.

9. Re-insert ignition key and/or repress the Start Stop Engine button and recheck display/work.

NOTE!!:
- The remaining time/distance is given after each maintenance operation.
- The reset process is cancelled by waiting for too long or by replacing the terminals.
- The list of operations is sorted according to remaining distance or remaining time.
- CBS items are arranged chronologically. The most critical item is displayed first.
- Every reset causes the service counter of the respective item to be increased by one. The service counters are used in the item-specific SAM to monitor. The service counter can only be read off with the "Correct Vehicle Data" menu of the tester. Please refer to: CBS Vehicle Data Correction With the Diagnosis System.
- A "!" symbol at the end of the operation indicates that the operation is due, and a "o" symbol indicates a reset inhibition.
- The operation to be reset can be selected by repeatedly pressing the trip meter button.
- If the Button is pressed and held, a prompt will appear in the rev counter, in which the operation to be reset again has to be confirmed by briefly pressing the button. The operation is reset by setting the availability to 100%.


IMPORTANT!!:
- It is only possible to carry out a reset in the vehicle if the service life of the item is below 80%; if however it is necessary to carry out a reset, this must be done in the diagnosis system (see "CBS reset with the diagnosis system" please refer to: Resetting CBS With the Diagnosis System). The reset lock is displayed in the menu with the text "O.K.".

- The values should only ever be reset after the service measure has been carried out.

- Every time CBS items are reset, it must be ensured that the on-board date is set correctly. The on-board date is reference for defining the target date for the time-dependent CBS items.

- If the on-board date needs to be corrected, the service order must be checked again.

- It is not possible to reset the CBS operation "Front or Rear Brakes" if the DSC control unit detects a worn sensor. It is only possible to reset the front and rear brake pad displays if the brake pad sensor is working.

- Correction of the legally stipulated values is carried or in the Control Display.


Entering the legally stipulated deadlines (-vehicles/-emissions).
Enter the target deadline for the legally stipulated deadline by clicking on the item with the Controller in the CBS menu of the Control Display under:

Start menu => Information => Next Service => Status

The target month or target year can be set and confirmed by rotating and pressing the Controller.

Note:
- Encoding or decoding the legally stipulated items is only possible with the diagnosis system. See:
