Technical Service

SUBJECT
JBE Fails to Program

MODEL
E90 (3 Series) with model codes VB17 and VB27 produced from 7/11/2005 to 11/30/2005

SITUATION

Final report of programming session shows "CoApi code 2089" for JBE (Junction Box electronics) module. Module failed to program but is still working correctly.

CAUSE

Due to a logistic error in JBE modules manufactured in South Africa, some of the parts may not program using CIP/PROGMAN.

CORRECTION

The junction box does not show any general malfunctions.

Replace the JBE module if the above error prevents the vehicle from finishing the programming session correctly.

A data correction is expected with PROGMAN V21.0 in March 2006. With this or a more recent version, these components will be able to be programmed.
