SERVICE INFORMATION

If an Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit, Engine Control Module, or Transmission Control Module is replaced and the configuration of the old unit could not be saved, use the Service Procedure in this bulletin to:

Load the VIN specific configuration file from your electronic parts catalog (FAST or equivalent) onto a portable USB storage device (thumb drive).
Plug the thumb drive into your CONSULT PC.
