VCM Battery Connector damage and reset.

[R1maS]

Hi, I have a P31489606 (VCM 3G - V90 Inscription Pro D5 (Dec 2016) and in a lazy panic, I lifted the battery pcb connector off the PCB/PWB.

Its a standard SMD connector and i managed to lift all the pads off with it, great and i went into the usual cold sweat.

Okay, i know I'm stupid, but I was under pressure, another story.

I can fix it myself, as have had years of repairing boards including multilayer boards.

But i can only trace 3 of the 4 pins. There are a few PTH nearby but no sign of where the pad was connected.

Can anyone help? Just the pinouts or ideally a circuit diagram of the 8v backup battery connections for the VCM 3G. Just using it with a temp fix to keep driving.


Also,

Can anyone advise how i can reset the unit for a new battery??

Hi, have you managed to reset the VCM for the new battery?

You need to do it using VIDA - https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2024/M...8-0001.pdf

As i don’t have Vida subscription, i would ask dealer to do it for me, is this request a long process?

As I saw yesterday, Andrew added to the last OrBit version this function as well. Did not tested it, but it is in OrBit
