SERVICE PROCEDURE
NOTE:
•
For 2013 Versa Sedan only: This procedure may require reprogramming of the ECM
and TCM which means most steps in this procedure may need to be done twice.
•
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) Reprogramming" general procedure.
•
Take the vehicle for a 10 minute drive in order to meet the following Idle Air Volume
Learn (IAVL) conditions:
¾ Engine coolant temperature: 70 -100°C
(158 - 212°F)
¾ Battery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)
¾ Transmission: Warmed up
Figure A
•
After reprogramming is complete, you will be required to perform Throttle Valve
Closed Position, Idle Air Volume Learn, Accelerator Closed Position, and DTC
erase.
CAUTION:
•
Connect the GR8 to the 12V battery and select ECM Power Supply Mode.
If the vehicle battery voltage drops below 12.0V or rises 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.
