- The body control module BCM must be programmed with the proper
RPO configurations. The BCM stores the information regarding the vehicle options
and if the BCM is not properly configured with the correct RPO codes,
the BCM will not control all of the features properly. Ensure that
the following conditions exist in order to prepare for BCM programming:
• | The battery is fully charged. |
• | The ignition switch is in the ON position. |
• | The data link connector DLC is accessible. |
- To setup a new BCM, access the SPECIAL FUNCTIONS menu on the scan
tool to program the BCM. Select NEW BCM SETUP and follow the instructions
on the scan tool.
- If the BCM fails to accept the program, perform the following
steps:
• | Inspect all BCM connections. |
• | Verify that the scan tool has the latest software version. |
Passlock™ Learn Procedures
Important: If any module is replaced, programming the module must be done prior
to performing the Passlock™ Learn procedure.
Perform the Learn Procedure if any of the following components have
been replaced:
Refer to
Programming Theft Deterrent System Components
for the correct Passlock™ learn procedure.
• | The body control module (BCM) |
• | The powertrain control module (PCM) |
Important: After programming, perform the following to avoid future misdiagnosis:
- Turn the ignition OFF for 10 seconds.
- Connect the scan tool to the data link connector.
- Turn the ignition ON with the engine OFF.
- Use the scan tool in order to retrieve history DTCs from all modules.
- Clear all history DTCs.
