.
If the radar does not have the latest application software, the Status Message will read "Initializing File for
Download". See Fig. 4. Continue below.
The next screen to appear will be the "VIN Entry Screen." See Fig. 5 . Enter the 17 digits of the VIN in the
text box, then select "Save Parameters."
IMPORTANT: Once the process is finished, a message displays indicating a successful flash. There is also an
instruction in the dialog box to email saved parameters to Meritor WABCO. It is not necessary to email parameters
to Meritor WABCO. This instruction can be ignored.
10. Once the radar update is complete, the "Radar Programming Successful" message appears. See Fig. 6.
11. Close the window.

NOTICE
If the radar software update fails, try again. If after three attempts it still will not complete the update, run
OnGuard within Meritor TOOLBOX and check the "Product Information" screen. If the software version
name is legibly displayed, shutdown TOOLBOX, turn the ignition off, reboot the laptop, then begin the
procedure again at step 2. If the software version field contains a series of "Ys" ("yyyyyyyyyyyy") download
the latest programming tool version from the htp server (see page 6). This will enable you to complete the
radar software update. Contact Meritor at 1-855-454-8273 for more information.
If several units require multiple attempts to complete the update, or if multiple units in a row have the
Software Version Name error, or there is reason to suspect that data transmission may be slow or erratic,
try switching out the USB cable from the computer to the adapter.

OnGuard Display Update
1. Make note of the existing OnGuardTM Display Software version.
1.1

Turn on the vehicle ignition switch.

1.2

Look for revision level 1.1 (Rev 1.1) listed at the bottom of the display initialization screen. See Fig. 7.
If the display shows Rev 1.1, the latest software version is already installed. No further work is necessary
in the "OnGuard Display Update" procedure. Go to the next designated repair for this vehicle as listed
below:
• Vehicles in SF499A and C, go to DDE Powertrain Update on pg 11.
• Vehicles in SF499E, go to Harness Routing Modification on pg 13.

DDE Powertrain Update
1. Verify that the current version of Detroit reprogramming software is being used.
1.1

Open the programming software.

1.2

Select the "Help" drop-down menu, and then select "About." Detroit Diesel Reprogramming Software
(DDRS) 7.11 with Service Pack 1 (or higher) must be used when programming. If using DiagnosticLink,
the current version is 8.0.

2. Connect DDRS to the vehicle. Make sure that the modules (ACM, CPC, MCM, and, if applicable, the DT12
TCM) are connected.

NOTICE
Before programming, make sure the VIN is correct in all modules (ACM, CPC, MCM, and, if applicable, the
DT12 TCM). If the VIN is not correct in any of the modules, the process will fail.
3. If the ignition is off, then turn the ignition on and wait 20 seconds.
4. Make sure the VIN is correct in all modules by looking at the "Identification" screen in DDRS. If the VIN is not
correct in all modules, the VIN can be corrected in the "Actions" drop-down menu in DDRS. Select Check
VIN Synchronization, then select Start and follow the prompts. When synchronization is complete continue
with the download process.

5. Make a note of the engine serial number.

6. On the "Identification" screen, check the current software and fuel map levels. The following are the minimum
levels required:
•
•
•
•

MCM with 4.1.0.47 software and fuel map version ZGS 002
ACM with 3.1.3.0 software and fuel map version ZGS 001
CPC with R32_00_000A software
TCM with NAMT050400 software (DetroitTM DT12TM transmissions)

7. If the software and fuel map levels are higher than the levels listed in step 6, then no programming is necessary.
Go to step 18. Otherwise, continue with step 8.
IMPORTANT: Certain parameter names within the CPC changed slightly with the introduction of current CPC
software R33_00_000A. When programming the CPC with Detroit Diesel Reprogramming Software (DDRS) 7.11,
the software may not correctly copy the current parameter values due to the name change. Making note of the
parameter values in Table 3 before updating the CPC, then verifying those parameter value settings after updating
will help ensure proper performance, especially on DT12 equipped units.
8. Write down the parameter values in Table 3 so they can be referenced after programming the CPC. The
parameters can be viewed by clicking on "Parameters" in the DDRS sidebar.

NOTE: Older versions of DDRS may list different parameter names from those listed in Table 3. If there is a
difference, verify the DDRS software version.
9. Select Program Device on the left side of the DDRS screen.
10. Select Add in the upper right corner of the DDRS screen, then enter the engine serial number.
11. Click Connect to Server in the bottom right corner of the DDRS screen.
12. Program the MCM, ACM, and CPC, and, if applicable, the DT12 TCM. The currently available software and
fuel map levels may be higher than the minimum levels shown in step 6.
13. After updating the CPC, verify that the parameter values noted in Table 3 match. If the parameter values do
not match, set the values to those documented in step 8.
14. When programming is complete, click the Finish button.
15. Turn the vehicle ignition off, disconnect the USB Link at either the computer port or vehicle diagnostic port,
and wait one minute.
16. Turn the vehicle ignition on and wait one minute for the modules to synchronize.

17. Connect the USB Link and connect DDRS to the modules. Confirm the proper software levels.
18. After programming, code 609/13-CPC Software Diagnostics may appear. This is a parameter-related fault.
Do not replace the CPC. The cause is that the parameters for the fan source addresses list has identical
values for DPF Source Address and Fan Source Address 1. This occurs most often on the M2 chassis. Use
Detroit Diesel Reprogramming Software (DDRS) 7.11 with Service Pack 1 (or higher) to correct this. Note
that the current version is DiagnosticLink® 8.0. Any changes made with older software may cause additional
problems. In the CPC parameters, group PGR001 Communication, set the values shown in Table 4.

19. If equipped with a DT12TM transmission, a clutch learn procedure will need to be performed after programming
the DT12TM TCM.
19.1

Make sure the vehicle is on level ground with the Tilt Sensor reading 0 degrees. To view the Tilt Sensor
reading, select "Service Routines" and then the "Tilt Sensor" tab.

19.2

Select "Actions/Transmission/Transmission Learn Procedure."

19.3

Turn the key to the ON position, but do not start the engine.

Select "Learn Clutch Only" from the drop down box at the bottom, then click the "Start" button.

19.5

When the Clutch Learn procedure is complete, turn the key to the OFF position and wait a moment.
Turn the key to the ON position to complete the procedure.

20. The DDE Powertrain update is complete. Go to the next designated repair for this vehicle as listed below:
• Vehicles in SF499A and D, go to Harness Routing Modification on pg 13.
• Vehicles in SF499B and C, the campaign is complete. Clean a spot on the base label (Form WAR259).
Write the campaign number, SF499, on a blank grey completion sticker (Form WAR261) to indicate the
work has been completed and attach it to the base label.

Harness Routing Modification
1. Remove the bumper.
2. Locate the radiator air baffle on the driver’s side of the vehicle, and remove the two mounting bolts nearest
to the OnGuard mounting bracket. See Fig. 9. Flip the orientation of the bolts and install them so that the
threads are facing down. Tighten the nuts securely.
3. Position a stud-mount tie strap (23-12115-001) on each bolt thread, then secure the harness. See Fig. 9.
4. Install the L-bracket.
4.1

Remove the center mounting bolt from the driver’s-side frame rail extension. See Fig. 10.

4.2

Position the L-bracket (23-09130-007) on the frame rail extension at a 45 angle so that the "L" is facing
away from the vehicle, then install the bolt.

4.3

Tighten the nut to 135 lbf1ft (184 N1m).

NOTE: Harness configuration varies, and may branch off of the headlight and fog light harnesses. Follow the forward radar harness from the radar mount location back to the main commodity harness on the inboard side of the
frame rail. The forward radar harness should be routed underneath the forward closing crossmember and outboard
on the driver’s side, then over the top of the frame rail extension and through the front frame bracket pass-through
hole. Make sure the harness is not positioned in a manner that will cause it to rub or become pinched.
