NOTE:
- Prior to starting the vehicle, check for PATS DTCs. Perform the appropriate pinpoint test.
- When the PATS module is replaced, both ignition keys must be relearned and stored in memory. Insert each key in the ignition and turn to RUN for automatic programming.
- When the battery is disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the vehicle relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16 km (10 mi) or more to relearn the strategy.
- The PATS module must be reconfigured after replacement. Refer to the PATS Configuration Command Index. For additional reprogramming assistance, refer to the Help Screen on the New Generation STAR (NGS) Tester configuration card.
