Service Procedure
NOTE:
Before reprogramming, please check the battery condition to prevent a reprogram error of the driver's seat module due to battery discharge. Battery voltage must be between 12 and 16 volts during reprogramming. If the vehicle battery is not fully charged, use jumper cables from an additional battery. Be sure to turn off or disable any system that may put a load on the battery such as automatic headlamps, daytime running lamps, interior lights, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, radio, engine cooling fan, etc. A programming failure or control module damage may occur if battery voltage guidelines are not observed.
The ignition switch must be in the proper position. The Tech 2 prompts you to turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. DO NOT change the position of the ignition switch during the programming procedure unless instructed to do so.
Make certain all tool connections are secure, including the following components and circuits:
^ The control module serial data link tester
^ The RS-232 communication cable port
^ The connection at the data link connector (DLC)
^ The voltage supply circuits
DO NOT disturb the tool harnesses while programming. If an interruption occurs during the programming procedure, programming failure or control module damage may occur.
DO NOT turn OFF the ignition if the programming procedure is interrupted or unsuccessful. Ensure that all control module and DLC connections are secure and the TIS terminal operating software is up to date.
NOTE:
Use Kent Moore J-45289 CANDi module if performing the programming procedure on an Ascender equipped with a V8 engine.
IMPORTANT:
Use IDS version 9 or newer to complete this service procedure. The Tech 2 must also be updated to 26.004 or greater. If you cannot access the calibration, call the IDS Support Line for a VCI number.
