D. Reprogram the TIPM Using STARMOBILE

CAUTION:
The TIPM may not support "abort - recovery" mode. If this flash process is interrupted/aborted and you are unable to read the TIPM Flash Part Number, the TIPM may be damaged beyond repair and may require replacement. Always verify if the module has truly been damaged beyond repair by attempting to restart the flash process.

1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.2 to 13.5 volts. Do not allow the charger to time out during the flash process. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.

NOTE:
Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter. The battery charger voltmeter may not be sufficiently accurate. Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash. If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.
