Module Programming: Check

NOTE: Perform the following pre-checks to make sure module programming completes without errors.
  1. Start the programming session in KOEO.
  2. Make sure the vehicle battery is fully charged or is connected to a battery charger. The battery state of charge should be 12.6 - 13.6 volts  during vehicle programming.
  3. NOTE: A good internet connection is necessary.

    Inspect the VCM II or VCMM and cables for damage. Make sure cables remain connected throughout the programming procedure.

  4. Turn off all unnecessary accessories, such as radio, A/C, climate controlled seats, headlamps, interior and demand lamps.
  5. Disconnect any aftermarket accessories, such as remote start, security alarm and power inverter.
  6. For Plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles, disconnect the external charge cord from the charge port.
  7. Disable Microsoft Windows sleep mode, screensaver and hibernation modes.
