IF YOU CONFIRM
The MIL is ON with DTC P050B (Cold Start Control) stored,
and
There are no drivability issues.

ACTION
1. Refer to step 6 in the SERVICE PROCEDURE to confirm this bulletin applies to the
vehicle you are working on.
2. If this bulletin applies, reprogram the ECM.

IMPORTANT: The purpose of ACTION (above) is to give you a quick idea of the work you

SERVICE PROCEDURE

NOTE:


Most instructions for reprogramming with CONSULT-III plus (C-III plus) are
displayed on the CONSULT PC screen.



If you are not familiar with the reprogramming procedure, click here. This will link
you to the "CONSULT- III plus (C-III plus) ECM Reprogramming" general procedure.



Take the vehicle for a 10 minute drive in order to meet the following Idle Air Volume
Learn (IAVL) conditions:
 Engine coolant temperature: 70 -100°C
(158 - 212°F)
 Battery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)
 Transmission: Warmed up


After reprogramming is complete, you will be
required to perform Idle Air Volume Learn.
The above condition are required for Idle Air
Volume Learn to complete.

CAUTION:





Connect the GR8 to the 12V battery and select ECM Power Supply Mode.
If the vehicle battery voltage goes below 12.0V or above 15.5V during
reprogramming, the ECM may be damaged.
Be sure to turn OFF all vehicle electrical loads.
If a vehicle electrical load remains ON, the ECM may be damaged.
Be sure to connect the AC Adapter.
If the CONSULT PC battery voltage drops during reprogramming, the
process will be interrupted and the ECM may be damaged.
Turn off all external Bluetooth® devices (e.g., cell phones, printers, etc.)
within range of the CONSULT PC and the VI. If Bluetooth® signal waves
are within range of the CONSULT PC during reprogramming,
reprogramming may be interrupted and the ECM may be damaged.
