Hi everyone,

since most of us are suffering from this error due to battery drain or actual malfunction. it is better to code it and remove the error.

Disable Backup Battery
ATM 1F61
3001 ON_Board /BUB_FITTED (to nicht_aktiv)

Sometimes, it is enough to code the first one only.

Disable emergency call
KOMBI
3004 st_ecal_alive to (nicht_aktiv)
3004 st_ecal_timeout to (nicht_aktiv)

Hope this helps.

up2up This is awesome. I have Bimmerlink - can you recommend a tutorial for me to use Bimmerlink to do this coding? OR, do I need a different program?

I believe biimerlink is a diagnostic tool. You need esys or biimer utility which is a great and easy tool. It has both PC and mobile version.

I was able to code out the emergency SOS malfunction error for my 2019 X5 with Bimmercode just now.

• Load up Bimmercode app with your OBD2 adapter
• Select the "Instrument Cluster" from the menu
• Select "Expert mode" and acknowledge you are aware of the risk
• Scroll to the top and search for "Meldung_0299" in the search box and enter
• Select "nicht_activ", back out and then hit "Code"

Just decided I'd pass this along to anyone else that may looking for a temporary fix and disabling the SOS error message that keeps popping up when you open the door. Good luck

Thank you so much for this. Just did it on my 2021 m340i, 80 dollars for the OBD2 and 50 for bimmercode app, worked like a charm

Hello there I have a 2014 Bmw X5 N55. I did that but for some reason the SOS lights comes back on every time I restart the vehicle.

This is the first and best solution i have found. Great job sharing it!

I have purchased bimmercode full version for $50 and also purchased bimmerlink. I am using the MX+ OBDLink from my Iphone. The instructions here are very clear and I have no trouble going to "instrument cluster" Expert mode. I can then select "300A CC_Konfiguration", but I do not get an option from there for "CC_MELDUNG_0299=> nicht_aktiv" as others have instructed. When I select 300A CC_Konfiguration, I get about a dozen options that state "CC_AKTIVIERUNG_1" Then, the same followed by 2, 3 4, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Vehicle is a 2019 BMW X3 and I am trying to just remove/delete the Emergency Call System Malfunction due to the cost of repairing.
