Summary

Technical Bulletin (Update Programming of ECM for Concerns of a Bump Sensation after Coming to a Stop): Current ECM programming may cause a bump after coming to a stop, which may be felt through the chassis of the vehicle. This concern is caused by the engine torque being slightly high when the transmission goes into Neutral Control. Neutral Control is designed to reduce load on the engine during idle, in order to decrease emissions. The production solution to this issue was improved software for smoother stopping.

Update Programming of ECM for Concerns of a Bump Sensation after Coming to a Stop
Tip:
This software update also includes modifications for Idle control system diagnostic strategy and DMTL system
diagnostic strategy.
Note:
The supplied software is not associated with stalling, lunging, or other performance issues.
If the ECM fault memory contains faults, these faults must be addressed before performing this Technical Bulletin.
If no fault codes are found in the ECM fault memory: DO NOT diagnose or replace any components for this
concern before performing the update function as explained in this bulletin.

Technical Background
Current ECM programming may cause a bump after coming to a stop, which may be felt through the chassis of
the vehicle. This concern is caused by the engine torque being slightly high when the transmission goes into
Neutral Control. Neutral Control is designed to reduce load on the engine during idle, in order to decrease
emissions. If the engine is still producing torque during the time the transmission goes into Neutral Control, there
will be a bump caused by the power disconnect. The concern is more likely to occur when the engine is under
higher load at idle, for example, if running the Air Conditioning or under high electrical loads.
The concern as described may be difficult to reproduce.

Production Solution
Improved software.

Update-Programming Procedure:

Tip:
To Update-Programming using SVM, review and follow instructions in Technical Bulletin Instance 2014603
“Software Version Management”.
The SVM Process must be completed in its entirety so the database receives the update confirmation response.
Note:
Prior to launching VAS-PC application and starting control module update process, confirm tester screen saver
and power settings in accordance with Special Tools and Equipment - Service Information Circular # VSE-08-18.
Failure to do so may result in the tester entering power save mode during data transfer, and subsequent control
module failure.
When using a VAS 6150/5051B or VAS 5052A 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.
• Update the Engine Control Module using the SVM Unit code as listed in the table below:
