If the crack is in the pebble dash only you will be able to hack off an area 1.2 m2. Uni bond the wall and then re apply a 2 coat pebble dash over the area insuring to put the required waterproofer in the first coat. The first coat must be stronger than the second.
If the crack has gone beyond the render then you may need to stitch the brickwork back using resin and re-bar in the mortar joints that are affected

Alternately apply a high polymer base coat to whole Bay Area and scrim with mechanical fixing pins thru scrim and and finish whole bay ( no nasty scars)
