Replace and Program Control Module
During the procedures listed below, critical data is retrieved from vehicle components and stored in the scan tool computer's hard drive. This data is needed during the programming and setup sequences.
Ensure the same scan tool is used and capable of reading, storing, and writing the vehicle's system data.
To program a replacement control module, perform the following procedure:
- On the SPS Supported Controllers screen, select K43 Power Steering Control Module - Prepare Control Module for Removal and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Replace the Power Steering Control Module. Refer to Control Module References .
- On the SPS Supported Controllers screen, select K43 Power Steering Control Module - Programming and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.
- Ignition ON.
- On the SPS Supported Controllers screen, select K43 Power Steering Control Module - Setup and Configuration and follow the on-screen instructions.
- At the end of programming, choose the "Clear All DTCs" function on the SPS screen.
Step 1 copies the worm gear wear counter data from the power steering control module PRIOR to the module's removal and stores it on the scan tool computer's hard drive.
AFTER completing step 1, the power steering control module can now be removed and replaced.
The next two steps will transfer the vehicle's critical data, including the worm gear wear counter data saved in step 1, back to the vehicle components.
