It started like most of them…….
As a request !!
So it was a combination, of a faulty SBC, common sence, LOTS of time and GUTS to figure this out
Make sure engine is running !!!
In Developer mode you need to go to Entwickelingsdaten –> ansteueringen –> Gesamstliste aller Ansteuerungen
to see how many times brake has been pressed there is a line that says: Bremsenzahler (DJ_GetBrLive) or DJ_GetBrLiveTime
then 1 line down there you see Bremsenzahler aktualisieren und Lebensdauerzahler F neu berechenen –> click it !
Parameter uINBR = 0
then click F3
1 line down Bremsenzahler auf beliebigen Wert setzen (DJ_SetNBr) –> click it
Parameter uINBR = 0
then click F3
then scroll down untill you see the line’s :
Lebensdauerzahler F neu berechenen (DJ_CalcLiveTime)
Parameter uINBR = 0
then click F3
Lebensdauerzahler F neu berechenen und schreiben (DJ_BuildAndWriteF)
Parameter uINBR = 0
then click F3
Log out of SBC !!
log out of verhicle !!
let engine run at least 10 minutes or drive at least 10 minutes
If no coils are damaged, SBC fault code is not AKTUEL nomore
Note:
(Dj_setNBr) Here you SET new brake counter value back to 0
(Dj_setNBr) uINBR = 0
Resetting break counter to zero is in my opinion, not messing with …..
each time SBC powers up it checks itself time after time
If there occures any problem in SBC unit with valve, brushes or whatever, it will go into error anyway. that you will NOT be able to erase in Dev mode
If you switch on contact of Brand new MB with SBC and press break 300.000 times it will go into this so called “error” you wanna say SBC is broken then ? without driving a milimeter ?
No it’s indication to have SBC unit checked by MB workshop $$
Yes it’s true that MB has to replace Faulty SBC units for free
since Factory will pay all there labor & material
But most Dealers try to have costumer pay for this procedure claiming costumers car has no a Dealer serviced History
