REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE:

CAUTION: Conduct reprogramming with the ignition key in the "ON" position.

Be careful NOT to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or Hi-Scan Pro during reprogramming.

WARNING: If reprogramming is interrupted, the manual update procedure must be used.
NOTE: Verify that the vehicle is affected by identifying the vehicle production date and VIN.

To prepare for reprogramming in case of an error, write down the old and new ECM ID's displayed on the Hi-Scan Pro screen during the automatic update procedure.

The recorded ECM ID's will be used if the Hi-Scan Pro fails to automatically download the new ECM software.

AUTOMATIC UPDATE PROCEDURE:

  1. Attach the Data Link Connector (DLC) cable to the Hi-Scan Pro main body and tighten the two (2) bolts securely.
  2. Remove any software cards from the Hi-Scan Pro and insert the new reprogramming card into the Hi-Scan Pro top slot. Use the most current reprogramming software.
