Fault Output (Diagnosis)

2011 BMW Alpina B7SECTION Fault Output (Diagnosis)

With the aid of the ISTA diagnostic system, the fault memory can be read out via the diagnostic interface. After rectifying the faults or after replacing the triggered components, the fault memory can be cleared with the diagnosis command "Clear fault memory".

NOTE: The cleared fault code memory entries are transferred to the past events memory. A maximum of 15 faults can be stored in the past events memory. When another entry is added, the first entry is deleted. The past events memory is set up as a ring memory and can only be read out by the development department. The past events memory is not available to the Service department.
