Service Procedure
NOTE:
^ Most instructions for reprogramming with CONSULT-III plus (C-III plus) are displayed on the CONSULT PC screen.
^ If you are not familiar with the reprogramming procedure, refer to the "CONSULT- III plus (C-III plus) Reprogramming" general procedure.
^ Take the vehicle for a 10 minute drive in order to meet the following Idle Air Volume Learn (IAVL) conditions:
> Engine coolant temperature: 70-100锟斤拷C (158-212锟斤拷F)
> Battery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)
> Transmission: Warmed up
^ After reprogramming is complete, you will be required to perform Throttle Valve Closed Position, Idle Air Volume Learn, Accelerator Closed
Position, and DTC erase.
CAUTION
1. Connect the CONSULT PC to the vehicle to begin the reprogramming procedure.
2. Open ASIST on the CONSULT PC and start C-III plus.
3. Wait for the plus VI to be recognized / connected.
^ Serial number will display when the plus VI is recognized / connected.

B. Compare the P/N you wrote down to the numbers in the Current ECM Part Number column in Table A above.
^ If there is a match, this bulletin applies. Continue with the reprogramming procedure.
^ If there is not a match, this bulletin does not apply. Close C-III plus and refer to ASIST for further diagnostic information.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to navigate C-III plus and reprogram the ECM.
NOTE:
^ In some cases, more than one new P/N for reprogramming is available.
> In this case, the screen in Figure 3 displays.
> Select and use the reprogramming option that does not have the message "Caution! Use ONLY with NTBXX-XXX".
^ If you get this screen in Figure 3, and it is blank (no reprogramming listed), it means there is no reprogramming available for this vehicle.
Close C-III plus and refer back to ASIST for further diagnosis.

If the screen in Figure 4 does not display (reprogramming does not complete), refer to the information below.
9. Disconnect the battery charger from the vehicle.
10. Select Next.
NOTE:
^ In the next steps below, you will perform Throttle Valve Closed Position, Idle Air Volume Learn, Accelerator Closed Position, and DTC
erase.
^ These operations are required before C-III plus will provide the final reprogramming confirmation report.
If reprogramming does not complete and the "!?" symbol displays as shown in Figure 5:
^ Check battery voltage (12.0 - 15.5V).
