Download ECM Reprogramming data into CONSULT-II from ASIST Procedure
IMPORTANT!
^ This is a special ECM reprogram and the following procedure is used FOR THIS INCIDENT ONLY!
^ Step 8 of Download ECM Reprogramming data into CONSULT-II from ASIST has been changed JUST FOR THIS BULLETIN. An ECM ID CODE must be entered to get the Reprogramming data from ASIST.
This is different from the typical ECM Reprogramming procedures now in use. The ECM ID code is listed in the right hand column of Chart A.
^ For limited application special customer concern incidents like this, the ECM ID CODE will be used. The general procedure for most other incidents will remain as usual: Enter Model Year and Model to look up ECM data in ASIST.
1. Remove the Diagnostics Card (blue) and install the ECM Reprogramming Software Card (orange) into slot A of CONSULT-II (see Figure 1).
2a. Connect the AC power supply to CONSULT-II.
2b. Connect CONSULT-II to the ASIST PC with the special Ethernet cable (P/N 02002554, printed on the cable) contained in the CONSULT-II kit.
NOTE:
Connect the special Ethernet cable to the ASIST PC by connecting it to the Ethernet card connection port located on the back of the computer. Connect the special Ethernet cable to CONSULT-II at the PC port located at the bottom end of the CONSULT-II unit.
