Service bulletin LI54.30-P-078649

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

Complaint Symptoms with driver display and/or central display Cause Under analysis Remedy NOTE: Please do not replace any parts. If you have symptoms with one or both displays, a TIPS case must be created. The TIPS case will be reviewed by MBUSA and GCSP. NOTE: Please perform the following steps before creating a TIPS case: Step 1: Check software release of the following control units to see if they are up to date; if necessary perform software update. • Instrument cluster (IC177 / IC 177M) • Head unit (HU6 / HU7) • All displays (DISP6 / DISP7S2) Reassess for the symptom. If the symptom is still present, continue with step 2. Step 2: Perform swap (swap display with a display from a reference vehicle) and reassess for the symptom. If the problem relates to the display, replace display. If the problem does not relate to the display, continue with step 3. Step 3: Check electrical wiring harness and video line (LVDS) for routing and external damage. Check contact pins and contact sockets for corrosion and bonding (photo documentation in micro view format requested). Check electric wiring harness for conductivity and short circuit, document measurement results in a measurement report or referenced wiring diagram using the CDT four level model.
