Hey all, just here to share my experience I had just now.
I updated my 2022 C40 to 5.1.17 today while at work. Probably not a good idea, I know, but I haven't had any issues with OTA updates since I got this car so I figured no big deal.
Well, turns out this time it was a big deal. It showed on the head unit the update was successful but upon putting the car in to drive and pulling away, a slew of errors popped up ranging from everything to Regenerative Braking failure to Lane Keep Assist failure, Adaptive Cruise failure, etc.
A persistent message remained on screen telling me to stop safely as there was a brake failure, but half a dozen hard brake tests in the yard at work confirmed that the friction brakes worked just fine and that it certainly just meant the regenerative braking had failed. I managed to drive home safely with friction brakes working just fine, albeit a bit noisy.
I arrived home and immediately booted up OrBit to try and fix the issue. Using the Clear DTCs function and Reset All ECUs function did not resolve the issue. However, under the Configurations tab I used the Reset to OEM function and that did indeed clear everything back up.
It shall be noted however that the car did seem to be back to OEM configurations after the OTA Update, but perhaps some things remained that caused the ECU errors to be present?
Regardless, I've included all these details here mainly so people prowling the Internet having the same or similar issue may come across this and find that OrBit can help save them a trip to the dealer just like it did for me.
Thanks OrBit team.
Lots of love! ️
