Teleaid SOS Malfuction Warning Mercedes Benz SOLVED

Is your Mercedes-Benz greeting you with “SOS TeleAid not Activated” or “SOS Defective Please Visit Workshop” warning on your Instrument Cluster? The message is being displayed because TeleAid has now become obsolete as it uses analog cellular coverage which no longer  exist as of February, 2008.  Mercedes Benz no long provides TeleAid service, they have now switched to Mercedes-Benz mbrace.

You have two options to disable this warning message from displaying on your Instrument Cluster.

 

1. Disable TeleAid in your Mercedes-Benz using Star Diagnostic Tool. Instructions on how to program TeleAid Unit are included below.

2. You can switch from Tele Aid to Mercedes Benz mbrace.

What is TeleAid SOS?

TeleAid is an emergy response system. Tele Aid is used to connect you to a live person at Mercedes Benz roadside assistance center which is available 24/7.  This is a free service for new car owners when activated within the first 90 first days of purchase. It connects the driver to Mercedes Benz road side assistance by using cellular technology and GPS to locate your vehicle. Tele Aid system is used also to send crash data in case of an accident. TeleAid required a subscription. The Federal Communication Commission ruled that after February of 2008 wireless phone carriers, which are utilized by TeleAid for the communication, are no longer required to provide analog network support. This requirement made the TeleAid system obsolete.  For this reason we have included instruction on  how to clear the Teleaid SOS warning with the STAR Diagnostic tool. In case you are wondering, Star Diagnostic is the scanner that the dealer uses to troubleshoot any system in your car and it is specific to Mercedes Benz cars. These units are kind of pricey but well worth it if you can afford one. You can buy one on Amazon, link here.

If you don’t have access to the Star Diagnostic Tool you can have your Mercedes Benz dealer perform DTB P-B-82.95/636a, 03/24/2009 Supersedes: P-B-82.95/636 dated Oct. 29, 2008 “Instrument Cluster Message – “SOS TeleAid not Activated””

SRS Airbag Defective Warning could be triggered when the TELE AID malfunction is displayed. The reason is that the car also uses the TELE AID system to send crash data in case of an accident. Once you change the configuration for Tele Aid to Not Present, you should also check the Air Bag Control Unit with Star Diagnostic and reset the fault code that are related to the TeleAid.

Disable TeleAid SOS Malfunction Warning using Mercedes Benz Star Diagnostic

Using Star Diagnostic you will need to change TeleAid coding from PRESENT to NOT PRESENT. By using these instructions you understand that TeleAid will not be available in case of an emergency.

Mercedes benz xentry das Missed Development data in SAM Smart 451 solution

 

Wanna activate DRL in SAM on a Smart 451 for the wife; however, it turns out my good old SD Connect C4 Xentry/DAS machine is missing the “Development data button” in SAM

I have “Diagnosis to plant specifications button” in KI on 451

It’s the same issue in SIM as on the car

I can access all development data in SAM on Smart 450, 452, 454.
But no SAM dev access in the bloody one i just bought…..

SOLVED !!!
Started a topic in the forum… Wait but no one could help me, so i did some “development” my self..

Changed all “LIC_Erstellerdaten” entries to “LIC_Entwicklungsdaten” in the 4 menu files attached

If you want development data in SAM on Smart 451’s then change your current 4 files with the edited ones in my attachment.
Files are located in this folder F:\Programme\DAS\trees\smart\AC451\SAM_451\menues

You will now have “Diagnosis to plant specifications” in your main SAM menu.

Don’t forget to back up the old ones in case i have messed something up

How to Configure SD Connect C4 Wifi on Win10 Win7 XP

SD Connect C4 Wifi Configuration mainly depend on which version of C4 and what the computer operation system (win10 or win7 or XP).

MB SD C4 Plus DoIP user, please be informed:

MB SD C4 Plus DoIP wifi Configuration is very simple, after the computer searches for the wifi signal, enter the password 123456789, you don’t need to set anything else, and you don’t need to set the WIFI IP address.

For the other version of SD Connect C4, thanks to @ W211 user, who concludes the following instructions:

Small instructions with some files to auto connect to c4 over Wi-Fi!

Check the files: C4 WIFI Connection
https://nitro.download/view/CF39B241B054345/C4WiFi_connection.rar

I have added how to change driver in win 10.
Win have all the drivers. You do not need to download any shit from internet.

*****To check if wifi card support adhoc rund cmd as admin and copy paste:*****
netsh wlan set profileparameter name=Road24h ConnectionType=IBSS
Maybe you need to revert back to old drivers, if adhoc is not supported!

I will Start with LAN setup:
1. Open properties to ethernet/LAN card IPv4
2. Enter IP 172.29.127.119 subnetmask: 255.255.255.0 if no communication when doing diagnostic with xentry/DAS try
172.29.127.121 subnetmask: 255.255.255.0
One of those IP’s would get you connected to c4! No more needed!

Wi-Fi Setup: Manuel mode (optional)
1. Open properties to Wi-Fi adapter and change IPv4 to
192.168.2.119 or
192.168.2.121
Again, One of these IP’s will work when you start diagnostic with Xentry/DAS

Must DO:
Create Adhoc Connection Road24h!
On win 10 Use old Wi-Fi driver to activate adhoc connection. Best Drivers are from 2015! (Change driver in device manager, pick old driver manual stock from win. You do not need to download any driver!)

1. Open Network and Sharing center and click “Set up a new connection or network”
2. Select “Manually connect to a wireless network”
3. Enter Information for the network you want to add:
– Network name: Road24h
– Security type: WEP
– Security Key: 26xa “aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa”
– Untick/Unselect “Start this connection automatically”

C4 Wi-Fi automatic mode:
To start “C4Wi-Fi_ON” connection I made a simple batch file, it will enable and dissable wifi card before assign new IP to your Wi-Fi card and connect to Road24h adhoc wich is created!
Also included “C4Wi-Fi_OFF” to revert IP back to automatic so you can use internet!

If stock IP (192.168.2.119) in “c4wifi_ON.bat” is not right you can right click the .bat file and edit to new IP which works for your C4!
Its only one click rather than go back and forth to change IPs. Also your WiFi card name you can edit in the file to match your wifi card name Stock in .bat file is “Wi-Fi”.

Its important you have made/created the adhoc connection Road24h in above settings before running .bat file! RUN AS ADMIN!! Copy .bat to Document folder, right click and send to desktop. Right click shortcut on desktop and click advanced, tick “Run as admin”. When you click shortcut it will run as admin and do its job!

Any difference on Win10 / Win7 /XP:

     On Win7 / XP

To change the Road24h connection to your usual network, some old adapters need to disable and enable the network adapter in the .bat.

    On WIN10

no need to disable and enable old adapters.
Win 10 Test report: Run batch files with administrator rights on my Windows 10 and works fine. Name of wifi connection must be the same in batch and in network section in control panel.

***Experience for sharing: In my old Toshiba with Intel PRO Wireless 3945ABG it is necessary to disable and enable old adapters, otherwise it is not able to change from the standard network to the adhoc network. And I am using WIN10.

Conclusion:
So it will enable and disable the card before apply new IP, no matter old or new pc!!!
If you want to Give special icon to .bat file!
– Copy both .bat files to document forlder.
– Right click files and send to desktop ( This will create a shortcut on your desktop)
– Right click on the .bat file on desktop and change icon to any and apply!
– Change the name of .bat file if you prefer C4

What’s new in DTS Monaco 9.02

 What’s new in DTS Monaco 9.02?

Diagnostic Tool Set (Softing DTS 9) has new functionalities enable even faster and more cost-efficient diagnostic development.

The highlights of the new 9.02 generation include, in particular, remote diagnostic support in the engineering network (remote diagnostics) and the display and recording of Ethernet communication (DoIP, Diagnostics over Internet Protocol). New functions in the area of OTX support, based on the latest standard, enable a perceptible increase in the speed of work thanks to automation and the ability to precisely solve individual problems with self-generated user interfaces. The integration of function-oriented diagnostics with the Smart Diagnostic Engine (Softing SDE) has now already made the leap to the next generation of “diagnostic systems”.

Remote Diagnostics in the Engineering Network

the engineer can connect up remotely, carry out his/her own tests and correct any problems directly (remote software update) so that the actual tests in hand can be continued. This can save a lot of time and money, especially in globally operating teams, as travel can be avoided and expensive test resources shared.

Does DTS 9.02 work on W206?
ZenZefi certificates are needed.

Does DTS 9.02 work on W223?
For w223 it needs ZenZefi certificate.
This project files works partially not all ecus are able to be coded in w223 and w206 cars.
The zenzefi certificates are around 10 certificates as of now.
Xentry diagnostic still doesn’t work if you are having that 10 zenzefi certificates also still it doesn’t work.
You need for every single ecu separate certificates for Diagnostic and separate for coding. And there are 6 different Types of certificates. After sales Basic, Aftersaleaenhanced, Development, Development Enhanced, Production and Suppliers.

Do I need to remote DTS Monaco 8.13/8.16 if install 9.02?

No, you can have both DTS 8 and 9 on the same laptop.

Does DTS Monaco 9.02 work without activation/certificate?

No, without working zenzfei it’s actually less useful than DTS8.
and works on SMR only but not CBF.
Full DTS have support for cbf. The i9.02 is incomplete version.

DTS 8.16 works perfectly with all chassis. Online and Offline.

8.16 works with 223 and 297, it has been working for a ling time, but you need online account.

You need to register and get account to use 9.02! Kline, can and doip protocols are supported. Not like the bad and first test dts from softing wich is viral on internet. Better use 8.16.
