• The Warranty Claim Code from the programming event must be accurately entered in the “Warranty Claim
Code” field of the transaction.
•

When more than one Warranty Claim Code is generated for a programming event, it is required to document all
Warranty Claim Codes in the “Correction” field on the job card. Dealers must also enter one of the codes in the
“Warranty Claim Code” field of the transaction, otherwise the transaction will reject. It is best practice to enter
the FINAL code provided by SPS2.

Warranty Claim Code Information Retrieval

6125774
If the Warranty Claim Code was not recorded on the Job Card, the code can be retrieved in the SPS2 system as
follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Open TLC on the computer used to program the vehicle.
Select and start SPS2.
Select Settings (1).
Select the Warranty Claim Code tab (2).

The VIN, Warranty Claim Code and Date/Time will be listed on a roster of recent programming events. If the code is
retrievable, dealers should resubmit the transaction making sure to include the code in the SPS Warranty Claim Code
field.
Service Procedure
Note: Carefully read and follow the instructions below.

•

Ensure the programming tool is equipped with the latest software and is securely connected to the data link connector.
If there is an interruption during programming, programming failure or control module damage may occur.

•

Stable battery voltage is critical during programming. Any fluctuation, spiking, over voltage or loss of voltage will
interrupt programming. Install a GM Authorized Programming Support Tool to maintain system voltage. Refer to
www.gmdesolutions.com for further information. If not available, connect a fully charged 12 V jumper or booster
pack disconnected from the AC voltage supply. DO NOT connect a battery charger.

•

Follow the on-screen prompts regarding ignition power mode, but ensure that anything that drains excessive power
(exterior lights, HVAC blower motor, etc) is off.

•

Clear DTCs after programming is complete. Clearing powertrain DTCs will set the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M)
system status indicators to NO.

Important: The service technician always needs to verify that the VIN displayed in the TLC left side drop down menu and
the top center window match the VIN plate of the vehicle to be programmed prior to using Service Programming System
2 (SPS2) for programming or reprogramming a module.

•

For the TLC application, service technicians need to always ensure that the power mode (ignition) is “ON” before
reading the VIN from the vehicle’s VIN master module and that they do not select a VIN that is already in the TLC
application memory from a previous vehicle.

•

If the VIN that shows up in the TLC top center window after correctly reading the VIN from the vehicle does not match
the VIN plate of the vehicle, manually type in the VIN characters from the vehicle VIN plate into the TLC top center
window and use these for programming or reprogramming the subject module with the correct vehicle VIN and
software and/or calibrations.

•

The Engine Control Module (ECM) is the master module (for VIP vehicles) that TLC reads to determine the VIN of
the vehicle. If the VIN read from the vehicle by TLC does not match the VIN plate of the vehicle, the ECM also needs
to be reprogrammed with the correct VIN, software and calibrations that match the vehicle’s VIN plate.

•

The Body Control Module (BCM) is the master module (for GEM vehicles) that TLC reads to determine the VIN of
the vehicle. If the VIN read from the vehicle by TLC does not match the VIN plate of the vehicle, the BCM also needs
to be reprogrammed with the correct VIN, software and calibrations that match the vehicle’s VIN plate.

Caution: Be sure the VIN selected in the drop down menu (1) is the same as the vehicle connected (2) before beginning
programming.

Dealer Responsibility
Whenever a vehicle subject to this service update enters your vehicle inventory or is in your facility for service in the
future, and the vehicle is still covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, you must take the steps necessary to be
sure the service update correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.
All new, used, GM Certified Pre-Owned (CPO), courtesy transportation vehicles, dealer shuttle vehicles, CarBravo, etc.
in dealers' possession and subject to this field action must be held and inspected/repaired per the service procedure of
this bulletin before customers take possession of these vehicles. Involved vehicles must be held and not delivered to
customers, dealer-traded, released to auction, used for demonstration, or any other purpose.
All GM Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles currently in the dealers’ inventory within the SHIFT Digital system will be
de-certified and must be held and remedied per the service procedure in this bulletin. Upon submitting an accepted/paid
warranty transaction in the Global Warranty Management (GWM) system, the vehicle can be re-certified for sale within
the SHIFT Digital system, or once again be used in the Courtesy Transportation Program.

Dealer Reports – For USA & Export
The Inventory tab of the Open Vehicle Report will contain Service Update Bulletin VINs that apply to this field action.
This information is intended to assist dealers with the PROMPT COMPLETION of these vehicles. The Customer InService tab will not contain Service Update Bulletin VIN data because the intent of a Service Update Bulletin is to not
inconvenience a customer with a special trip for service. Service Update Bulletins are to be completed when the
customer is in for a regularly scheduled visit.

GM bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, NOT a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform these technicians of
conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained
technicians have the tools, equipment, safety instructions, and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, DO NOT
assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See your dealer for information on whether your
vehicle may benefit from the information.
