Does anyone know what 'service mode' actually does other disable the ESC?

Looks to a bit of a faff to enter the service mode. But it is a free option.Much better way to do that than isolating the fuse by using maintenance mode.
Pretty sure its been discussed here somewhere before.
I wouldn't do the fuse method.

I personally haven't had a situation where I needed to disable the ESC, however, 2 guys that I know have. They were touring in Botswana, and were driving across the salt pans, which have a smooth but slippery surface. The manual can drive at around 80kph in low range 5th gear. The auto can't reach that speed in low range because overdrive doesn't engage, so he was driving in high range. When the ESC kicked in he ended up doing 360's at speed which isn't much fun.
