SUBJECT
Head-up Display: Navigation Information Is Not Displayed

MODEL
F30

F31

Produced from July 2012 to February 2013

with

Option 610 (Head-up Display)

and

Option 6WA (Instrument panel with extended scope)

SITUATION
The navigation system information (turn advice - arrow view) is no longer displayed on the Head-up Display (HUD).

Turning the ignition on and off doesn't resolve the issue.

CAUSE
Application error between the instrument cluster and the Head-up Display

CORRECTION
Do not replace the instrument cluster or HUD.

1. Perform a vehicle test using the latest ISTA diagnostic software. Complete all test modules related to any faults stored in the instrument cluster.

If there are no faults stored or the test modules do not identify a root cause of the situation, proceed to step 2.

Note:
When the ISTA system message displays: "Battery voltage only "XX.XX" V. Please connect charger." Please note the displayed battery voltage reading in the repair order comments section. This documentation is not necessary when part of an approved Technical Service repair procedure; the battery charger is required to be attached before performing the Vehicle Test.

2. Reprogram the vehicle using ISTA/P 2.49.2 or later.

New integration level: F020-13-13-503 or higher

Note that ISTA/P will automatically reprogram and code all programmable control modules that do not have the latest software.

For information on programming and coding with ISTA/P, refer to CenterNet / Aftersales Portal / Service / Workshop Technology / Vehicle Programming.
