* NOTICE
A fully charged battery is necessary before ECU upgrade can take place. DO
NOT connect a battery charger to the vehicle during ECU upgrade. Make sure
the blower motor is OFF during ECU upgrade.
All ECU upgrades must be done with the ignition key in the ON position.
Be careful not to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or GDS
during the ECU upgrade procedure.
DO NOT start the engine during ECU upgrade.
DO NOT turn the ignition key OFF or interrupt the power supply during ECU
upgrade.
When the ECU upgrade is completed, turn the ignition key OFF and wait 20
seconds before starting the engine.
ONLY use approved ECU upgrade software designated for the correct model,
year and engine size. Failure to do so may create other driveability issues
due to the use of the incorrect ECM/PCM calibration.

To verify the vehicle is affected, be sure to check the Calibration Identification of the
vehicle's PCMs ROM ID and reference the Information Table as necessary.
1. Connect the power supply cable to the GDS tool.

* NOTICE
If attempting to perform the ECU upgrade with the power supply cable
disconnected from the GDS tool, be sure to check that the GDS tool is fully
charged before ECU upgrade. If the GDS tool is not fully charged, failure to
perform the ECU upgrade may occur. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that
the power supply connector be connected to the GDS tool.

2. Connect the USB cable between the VCI and the GDS tool.

PCM UPGRADE P0110, P0111, P0116 AND P161B

* NOTICE
When performing the ECU upgrade using the GDS tool, wireless communication
between the VCI and GDS tool is not available. Therefore, be sure to connect the
USB cable between the VCI and the GDS tool.

3. Connect the Main 16-pin DLC cable (GHDM 241000) to the VCI.

4. Connect the Main 16-pin DLC cable

(GHDM 241000) to the OBD-II
connector, located under the driver's
side of the instrument panel.

5. With the ignition key ON, turn ON the VCI and GDS tool. Access the GDS vehicle
identification number (VIN) screen and configure the vehicle using the VIN AUTO DETECT
Function.
6. Once back at the GDS Main Screen, select ECM upgrade from the bottom right-hand corner.
Next select Auto Mode, Engine. Perform the ECM upgrade in accordance with normal GDS
tool ECM upgrade procedures.

* NOTICE
DO NOT attempt to perform a Manual Mode ECM upgrade unless Auto Mode fails.
Always follow the instructions given on the GDS tool in either Auto or Manual
mode. See table for Manual Mode passwords. In addition, a ECM reset is required
if Auto Mode fails; refer to the table below for procedure.
