Introduction Introduction Flashing is a way to update control unit software
l Flashing is required – If DTB requires updating of software– Requested by TAC/EDAC– New ECU part number
SCN coding identifies control unit software and coding conforming toVehicle
l SCN is required– After flashing fuel control unit (ME) or Electronic Transmission Controller
(ETC)– After replacement of ME or ETC– Required by law, can be fined if not done– Vehicle may not function correctly if not performed– Prevents after-market performance enhancements– In future additional control modules will require SCN coding

FlashingFlashingl Flashing is performed using SDS
– Via CD in SDS– DAS (software updates)– Via on-line (near future)
l SDS downloads software into appropriate control unit
l Flashing is only to be performed when needed, otherwise issues may arise
Note: Keep battery charger connected to vehicle during flash, battery voltage critical to process, verify proper connection to X11/4

l As of 2003 emission regulations require SCN in all coded emission related control units
l SCN identifies control unit software and coding for a specific vehicle (similar to version coding)– Coding string adapts the control unit to the individual vehicle,
incorporates vehicle equipment, safety information and emissions– Check digit also referred to as test digit checks VIN, SCN and code
string
l Must get new SCN when replacing or flashing ME or new Transmission control units
l If improperly completed certain features of vehicle may become inoperative (Tip start, cruise control)

SCN Coding ProcessSCN Coding Process
l Receive SCN coding from [email protected] E-mail or SDS help desk
l Information needed– Your name– Your E-mail address– Dealer name and number– Part# for ME or Transmission control module– VIN

l Information returned via e-mail– SCN coding (example 1131531279-15-002)– Code string (example 08-7D-08-&D-AC-0E-EF-FB-12-47-2B-BF-99-
52-14-2C) l Note: make sure to use code string as received including zeros
– Test digit (example 1A-0C-9D-43)
l DAS in ME – Control Unit Adaptations / Version Coding / Coding / SCN Coding / Perform SCN Coding
Note: Process will change
