Transit mode

The purpose of transit mode

To prevent excessive battery drain when the vehicle is delivered to a

dealer.

Configuration of transit mode

ROEWE 550 TECH

Chapter 3 Body Control Module （ BCM ）

Transit mode will allow limited functionality of electrical functions as follows:

• The dipped beam head lamps will not operate unless the engine is running
• The main beam head lamps will not operate unless the engine is running
• The front fog lamps (if fitted) will not illuminate unless the engine is running
• The rear fog lamps will not illuminate unless the engine is running
• The reverse lamps will not operate unless the engine is running
• The ambience lighting system is not operational
• The follow-me-home and find-my-car features are not operational
• When the engine is not running, only window close operations are possible. Full front & rear
window operation is possible with the engine running.
• The front wipers will operate for a maximum period of 1 minute with the handset in the AUX
position. The timer will restart for a further 1 minute if either the wiper switch is moved or the
handset is removed then returned to the AUX position.

Power down under load mode

The HVAC blower motor, Heated Rear Window (HRW), fog lights and main beam head lamps and are

all powered down as cranking.

The loads are re-enabled after the following time delay:

• Blower after 1 second

• HRW after 1.5 seconds

The principle

• BCM sends the HRW operating signal to the ECM via HS CAN bus.

• If the vehicle fitted with ATC, the indicator in the panel is controlled by MS CAN bus.

Check and repair

• Observe the status of HRW and switch using T5.
• Observe the operating situation of HRW and mirrors.
• Check Fuse 5, 26, Fuse link9.
