| Models: | 2008 Buick Enclave |
The following diagnosis might be helpful if the vehicle exhibits the symptom(s) described in this PI.
Condition/Concern:
The Remote Vehicle Start (RVS) is inoperative after adding this option.
Recommendation/Instructions:
It is very important to follow all the steps on the instruction sheet that comes with the accessories transmitter kit. Below are some of the key points for installing the remote vehicle start option.
- This will require reprogramming the Theft Deterrent Module (TDM) using TIS2WEB. Select the calibration with remote start.
- This will require a call to TCSC (1-800-828-6860) so the calibration for the BCM can be reconfigured.
- Reprogram the BCM using TIS2WEB.
Important: After programming the BCM, perform the following to avoid future misdiagnosis:
| • | Turn the ignition OFF for 1 minute. |
| • | Turn the ignition ON with the engine OFF. |
| • | Setup the BCM using the scan tool. |
| • | Navigate to the following on the scan tool: Vehicle Control Systems > Module Setup > Body Control Module |
| • | Recalibrate the brake pedal position (BPP) sensor by selecting "BPP Sensor Calibration" and |
| • | Relearn the restraints ID by selecting "Setup SDM Primary Key in BCM" |
- Program the new transmitters to the remote control door lock receiver using the scan tool.
Important: Program the new transmitters into key fob slots 1 and 2. This will enable diagnostics on the transmitters. Any other transmitters should be programmed into slots 3 and 4.
Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.
