Procedures

POWER TOP CONTROL MODULE

STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWER TOP CONTROL MODULE INITIALIZATION

1. Connect the DRB III(R) scan tool to the Data Link Connector.
2. Turn the Ignition Switch on and access the DTC Functions screen.
3. Select "Clear DTCs" and clear all DTCs in the new replacement Power Top Control Module (PTCM).

NOTE: The new PTCM must be initialized prior to being put into service. The PTCM is shipped in an active "Production Mode". The PTCM must be converted from an active Production Mode to a "Normal Mode". To convert the PTCM to a Normal Mode, the Ignition Switch must be cycled ON and OFF five (5) times. In the process of initializing the PTCM, a DTC is stored and must be cleared when complete.

4. Turn the Ignition Switch OFF and then ON 5 times with a 10 second pause between each ignition cycle.
