SECTION B:
When using any tester in conjunction with a VAS 5054A wireless transmitter head for a flash procedure, please connect a USB cable between the transmitter head and the tester. Failure to do so may lead to errors during the flash procedure. Also, ensure that the tester is not communicating via Bluetooth as the Bluetooth protocol is not a robust data transfer environment for the flash process. Control module failures caused by flashing via Bluetooth will not be covered.
Critical Warning: The Midtronics Battery Charger must be connected to the vehicle battery for the duration of the programming, to ensure the battery state of charge remains above 12.5 volts during the update process. If the battery drops below 12.5 volts, the programming could fail which may result in damage to the control module. Control modules damaged by insufficient voltage will not be covered.
The technician should verify the vehicle voltage prior to starting the update process, and should monitor the voltage for the duration of the update.
- Connect the VAS Diagnostic Device to the online network.
- Connect the VAS Diagnostic Device to the vehicle and switch ON the ignition.
- Switch OFF Bluetooth on the tester.
- Connect the USB cable between the VAS5054A transmitter head and the tester.
