General Information



Variant Encoding Procedure

If [1][2]DME M1.X control module replacement is required determine which method of variant encoding you will need.
- Adopting variant code from existing control module
- Manual input of variant code from control module label

Adopting the code is the preferred method since it prevents accidental error when manually entering the code. If the control module cannot communicate on the diagnostic link the manual input method will be necessary.
