Subject:
LACK OF POWER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON WITH DTC P130C

Bulletin No.: 01-009/17

Last Issued: 07/26/2017

DESCRIPTION
APPLICABLE MODEL(S)/VINS
2016-2017 CX-9 vehicles with VINs lower than JM3TC******143508 (produced before June 26, 2017)
Some customers may experience a lack of power when driving. The master warning light or the check
engine light turns on and DTC P130C stored in memory.
It occurs mostly at low temperatures. Once the ignition is turned off and on, the concern may disappear.
The PCM turns the master warning light on during the first drive cycle, then stores a pending DTC. The
master warning light and check engine light come on in the second drive cycle as a confirmation of the
DTC. The engine power is limited by the fail-safe function both in the first and second drive cycles.



DTC P130C:00 - (Pre-ignition detected)

Improper control logic of the PCM detects a normal operating noise as a knocking noise. To eliminate this
concern, the control logic of the PCM has been changed.

REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. Reboot the IDS to clear memory before reprogramming.
2. Using IDS 106.03 or later software, reprogram the PCM to the latest calibration (refer to “Calibration
Information” table) by following the “Module Reprogramming”
procedure.
NOTE:
• Always update the IDS tool first, then follow on-screen instructions to download the needed calibration file
for PCM reprogramming.
• It is not necessary to remove any fuses or relays during PCM reprogramming when the IDS screen
prompts you to do so. You may accidentally stop power to one of the PCM
terminals and cause the PCM to be blanked, or you may receive error messages during the IDS
reprogramming procedure.
• IDS shows the calibration part numbers after programming the PCM.
• Please be aware that PCM calibration part numbers and file names listed in any Service Bulletin may
change due to future releases of IDS software, and additional
revisions made to those calibrations for service related concerns.

• When reprogramming a PCM, IDS will always display the “latest” calibration P/N available for that vehicle.
If any calibration has been revised/updated to contain new
information for a new service concern/issue, it will also contain all previously released calibrations.
• Start/Stop button vehicles only: DO NOT press the start/stop button during the reprogramming process.
• When performing this procedure, we recommend using the “Power Supply” mode in the Battery
Management System to keep the vehicle battery up to capacity. If a different
charger is used, make sure it does not exceed 20 AMPS. If it exceeds 20 AMPS, it could damage the VCM.
3. After performing the PCM reprogramming procedure, clear DTCs.
4. After clearing DTCs, start the engine and confirm that no warning lights stay on.
NOTE:
• If any DTCs should remain after performing DTC erase, diagnose the DTCs using MGSS online
instructions or Workshop Manual section 01-02.
• Disconnect the negative battery cable and wait for 30 seconds or more to reset the fuel control learning
data.
