## Other bulletins for the same vehicles and component

- [B840226](/bulletins/11035408.md), 2026-07-31, Service campaign: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Once the Telematics Module \(TCB2\) enters sleep mode, a BMW Data Services trigger for Remote Services\(remote engine start, lock/unlock/climate conditioning\) will not be able to reactivate the TCB2. Due to this issue, Remote Services will not function in the vehicle when parked and locked.

- [B011624](/bulletins/11013037.md), 2025-01-23, Warranty extension: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. The Telematics Control Units \(TCU\) Internal Emergency \(Backup\) Battery for defects in materials and/or workmanship has been extended to 6 years without mileage limitation, as determined from the vehicles original first in\-service / delivery date. This coverage is subject to the same vehicle eligibility requirements, limitations, and exclusions that apply to the BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
- [B011824](/bulletins/11012111.md), 2025-01-02, Warranty extension: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

- [B610321](/bulletins/10250893.md), 2024-03-02, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS:CANISTER; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:SOFTWARE. SITUATION BMW AG is conducting a Voluntary Emissions Recall \(effective April 23, 2021\) on a certain Model Year 2020 \- 2021 BMW vehicles that were produced between August 13, 2019 and December 11, 2020. Do not deliver to a customer, a New, Certified Pre\-Owned or Used vehicle subject to an emissions recall, until the vehicle is repaired. Do not use or sell replacement equipment/parts subject to an emissions recall. The 12 V battery’s dual storage system \(DSS\) may contain a software error which intermittently causes a continuous resetting of the microcontroller and communication failure. The error is displayed by a red Check Control message.
- [B660720](/bulletins/10250601.md), 2024-03-02, Service bulletin: EQUIPMENT; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. The functionality of the left rear SRR sensor could be reduced which would display the Driving Assistance Check Control Message.

- [B640422](/bulletins/10250374.md), 2024-03-02, Service bulletin: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; VISIBILITY:DEFROSTER/DEFOGGER/HVAC SYSTEM. An interference noise \(groaning noise\) can be heard from within the heating and air\-conditioning unit in thecenter of the instrument panel. The groaning noise always occurs when either a ventilation flap, air stratification flap or the recirculated airflap moves to a different position. Due to the complex design of the heating and air\-conditioning unit, the kinematics causing it \(top or bottom,left or right\) may not be able to be precisely located. Depending on the vehicle model, the number of servomotors \(and the associated kinematics unit\) varies.Various models use either 2 or 3 servomotors.
- [B510819](/bulletins/10249437.md), 2024-02-01, Service bulletin: VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. The basic conditions for initializing the power windows are not met.
