Reprogram ECU (except Cadillac)

To program an existing ECU, perform the following procedure:

  1. Install EL-49642  SPS programming support tool.
  2. Access the Service Programming System (SPS) and follow the on-screen instructions.
  3. On the SPS Supported Controllers screen, select Instrument Cluster - Programming, Setup and Configuration and follow the on-screen instructions.
  4. On the SPS Supported Controllers screen, select Instrument Cluster - USB File Transfer and follow the on-screen instructions. When prompted after installing files in vehicle via USB memory stick, select UPDATE on radio display. When update is complete, select DISMISS and remove the USB memory stick.
    NOTE:
    • The USB File Transfer procedure requires the use of a USB memory stick. The radio must be on during this procedure. The USB File Transfer procedure is not required for vehicles with UDC.
    • Software currently loaded on the USB Drive will be verified and if files are incorrect they will be deleted and correct files will be loaded. If files residing on the USB Drive are correct for the vehicle being serviced, the Techline terminal will not delete those files and allow the drive to be re-used.
  5. At the end of programming, choose the "Clear All DTCs" function on the SPS screen.
