I have successfully removed all warnings about TPMS from my NAV - HU_CIC / RDC = nicht_aktiv (Thanks shawnsheridan!)

Now Im trying to remove the yellow warning light in the instrument cluster.

Anyone attempted this?

Did you search KOMBI for RDC setting, and if that did not work, remove 2VB from VO and VO Code KOMBI, HU_CIC, and RDC?

Ta da!

Kommentar=RDC Ueberwachung (Comment=RDC monitoring)

KOMBI / ST_TYR_TIMEOUT = nicht_aktiv
KOMBI /ST_TYR_ALIVE = nicht_aktiv

Hmmm...that surprises me that those two did not kill it.

Ok. Try this one too:

KL_PREDRIVE_F10_RPA = nicht_aktiv

If unsuccessful, kill 2VB in your VO, and VO Code HU_CIC and KOMBI. RDC has no coding data, so there is nothing to VO Code there I don't think.

That is almost impossible to believe. Are you sure after you removed 2VB from FA, that before you VO Coded HU_CIC and KOMBI, you loaded that FA (the modified one without 2VB) and activated it, and not the FA read from the car?
 
#9 ·
Yes! That is why removed it. Now when you VO Code the ECU's, it won't enable 2VB like your regular FA that is stored in your car will (assuming you did not go so far as to write the modified FA to the car, and the FA in the car is original).

Success! Did everything mentioned above but this time I removed fuse. No more tpms warnings, alerts in nav or instrument panel.

However, while coding the kombi it came up with a CEL out of the blue. It has been 3 days and its still there. I don't drive the car that much so I'm hoping it goes away on its own.

You can try this.

Assuming the fault condition no longer exists, to clear the fault code.

1) Launch C:\EDIABAS\Bin\TOOL32.EXE
2) Hit F3
3) Load C:\EDIABAS\Ecu\F01.PRG
4) In the "Select Job: F01" window, select FS_LOESCHEN_FUNKTIONAL
5) Hit F5
6) "Results" window should show "JOB_STATUS = OKAY"

Hopefully, Problem Solved.

Note: fs_lesen_funktional only read fault codes, FS_LOESCHEN_FUNKTIONAL will delete it.

CEL Zombie! Do you know what the CEL Code and its meaning is?

Maybe undo all your coding, clear it with Tool32, and see if it stays off. At least you will know if it is coding related.

hi guys, sorry to dig up this thread again but I could not manage to remove the RDC error message yet.

is it really necessary to remove the fuse to kill the error message? i dont even care about the yellow warning light much, i just want to remove the warning message from the idrive that pops up on every start.

I coded the 3 values as stated above, but I do not want to remove the fuse if not 100% necessary.
what does this mean: "Remove 2VB option in VO"? I have e-sys running and have coded a couple values before, but im not a coding expret. what is the VO?

Just wanted to know how you found what fuse it was. I have a 2015 f30 and have tried everything you did. I remove a fuse that has the tire symbol with exclamation. On mine its 132. Coded all that was mentioned and I still get all the warnings. I tried looking for the RDC module to unplug but no luck. I looked in all locations mentioned online. IM guessing it changed for 2015.

I did it on my 2013 f10 removed fuse coded and all worked with no lights or messages. I didnt have to remove 2VB from VO for that one.

Sorry for bringing back an old thread but I am trying to get my TPMS disabled since I have after market wheels. I am really confused about VO and what it is or where to find it. The same goes for the location of the RDC fuse in the trunk. I have some coding experience and have everything needed to code, just don't know where it is within the program. Thanks in advance.

Reading through this thread, it seems to be more trouble than it's worth to me. Just pick up a set of the damn TPMS sensors on eBay for about a hundred bucks and be done with it!

I'm not Shawn, but yes, same process will clear the code providing it's not an ongoing issue.

I tried doing it on my f10 but I didn't do the HU_CIC / RDC = nicht_aktiv because I have the hu nbt don't know if it will mess with other things. I did do the KOMBI / ST_TYR_TIMEOUT to nicht_aktiv all that did is reset my time and date. The KOMBI /ST_TYR_ALIVE = was already set to nicht_aktiv. I also pulled the fuse and Im still getting all the warnings... weird...

I did notice a difference just by the one setting I changed. Now it does not warn me as soon as I start car. It takes about a minute before all the lights start flashing.
It makes me wonder if that setting I changed to not active is the time it takes for it to warn. maybe if I change the value? what do you guys think? Just a thought.

Sorry, but I do not know the cause of the Initialization Error. Maybe you have a bad sensor or TPMS Module. Have you tried Coding it with NCS Expert?

Tool32 seems to hang when I load f01.prg. Am I missing a step? Thank you...
