Page 1 of 11 Technical Service Bulletin SB-10056298-8928 SUBJECT: ROUGH IDLE OR ENGINE STALL (HIGH AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, LOW RPM) − PUERTO RICO ONLY No: TSB−14−13−002 DATE: June, 2014 MODEL: See below CIRCULATE TO: [ ] GENERAL MANAGER [ ] PARTS MANAGER [ X ] TECHNICIAN [ X ] SERVICE ADVISOR [ X ] SERVICE MANAGER [ X ] WARRANTY PROCESSOR [ ] SALES MANAGER PURPOSE In certain tropical areas, affected vehicles may exhibit a rough idle or engine stalling condition at very low speeds, just prior to stopping/starting. This condition occurs if lower quality fuel was used in the vehicle and it is operated in high ambient temperatures, with the air conditioning operating, in stop and go traffic. This TSB instructs dealers only in Puerto Rico to reprogram the ECM with new software that optimizes throttle and purge flow operations at low engine speeds. BACKGROUND Vehicles sold in Puerto Rico are subject to U.S. emissions regulations. However, certain characteristics of the fuel sold there contribute to it being of lower quality than fuel sold in the mainland U.S., Alaska and Hawaii The lower fuel quality sold in Puerto Rico may lead to an unstable idle and stalling when affected vehicles are operated under the previously described conditions. AFFECTED VEHICLES The following vehicles currently operated in Puerto Rico only: S 2011−2013 Outlander Sport with CVT S 2011−2014 Lancer 2.0L with CVT built prior to November 1, 2013 S 2011−2014 Lancer Sportback 2.0L with CVT built prior to November 1, 2013 REQUIRED OPERATIONS OVERVIEW 1. Confirm your MUT−III is updated with the latest reprogramming database. 2. Reprogram the ECM with the new software. Refer to the ECM Reprogramming Chart for new software information. IMPORTANT: If an affected vehicle has a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illuminated before reprogramming, and DTCs are listed in the ECM memory, diagnose and repair those DTCs per the service manual before reprogramming. DO NOT reprogram the ECM until the reason(s) for other DTCs being set is corrected. EQUIPMENT The following equipment is needed to reprogram the ECM. D VCI (Vehicle Communication Interface) − MB991824 or VCI LITE − MB992744 D Laptop computer with A/C power adaptor − 520924, or MIT547708. D MUT−III main harness ’A’ (blue connector at the DLC end) − MB991910. D USB 2.0 cable − MB991827. D “Engine Compartment/Control Module” label − p/n MSSF024G00. D MEDIC−3 update at M266 or higher. D For Standalone MUT−III units, MUT−III Reprogramming Database N14051 or higher.

It is not necessary to reprogram the ECM for each previous TSB. 1. Check the underside of the hood to verify there is no “Authorized Modification” label (see page 11 for example) previously installed to indicate this reprogramming has already been completed. If a label is present and the “ROM ID #” on the label matches the “New S/W Part No.” in the table above, the ECM is at the latest level and reprogramming is not necessary. Conduct normal diagnosis for the described condition. For MEDIC 3 users only: (MUT−III users go to step 5) 2. Verify the MEDIC 3 is at version 3.1 and at update 266 or higher. If your MEDIC 3 update is at least 266, continue with the Reprogramming Procedure on page 4. Ver. and Update numbers If your MEDIC 3 update is below 266, update your MEDIC 3 as follows. Page 3 of 11 TSB−14−13−002 3. Select the MEDIC 3 Admin tab and click on “Updates.” Admin Click on Updates 4. IF the MEDIC update screen advises updates are available, click the “Begin” button. After all updates are complete, GO TO THE REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE ON PAGE 4. Click “Begin” N14051 5. STANDALONE MUT−III SCAN TOOL VIEWER (STV) ONLY: (MEDIC 3 USERS GO TO THE REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE ON PAGE 4). Verify that your MUT−III has the most current version of the reprogramming database: a. From the MUT−III Main Page: D Select “Special Function” D Select “ECU Reprogramming” D Select :Database File Display−CAN” D Confirm the database number displayed at the top right of the chart is N14051 or higher (1) If the database number displayed on your MUT−III is N14051 or greater, continue to the Reprogramming Procedure on page 4. (2) If the reprogramming database number displayed on your MUT−III is lower than N14051, locate the reprogramming CD containing database N14051 and follow the instructions provided with the CD to update your MUT−III. Page 4 of 11 TSB−14−13−002 REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE ! CAUTION CONNECT A BATTERY CHARGER TO THE VEHICLE’S BATTERY DURING THE REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE. DO NOT ALLOW THE BATTERY CHARGER TO TIME OUT. BATTERY VOLTAGE (AS MEASURED AT THE BATTERY POSTS WITHOUT ELECTRICAL LOAD) MUST BE KEPT AT 12.4V OR HIGHER IN ORDER TO REPROGRAM THE ECM. MEASURE THE BATTERY VOLTAGE AND CHARGE AS NECESSARY. NOTE: VCI Stand−alone reprogramming is not available for this procedure. The laptop and the VCI must remain connected for the entire procedure. Connect the equipment as follows: USB CABLE VCI − LAPTOP MEDIC−II / MUT−III MAIN HARNESS BLUE END VCI or VCI−Lite MEDIC / MUT−III COMPUTER D Turn the laptop computer on. If you’re running on battery power and the charge indicator in the lower right hand corner of the screen does not show a full charge, it is recommended that either the laptop battery be charged prior to beginning, or that reprogramming be completed with the A/C power adaptor connected to the laptop. D Connect the USB cable to the VCI (or VCI−LITE). D When the laptop displays the MUT−III main screen, connect the USB cable to the laptop. D Connect the MUT−III main harness (blue DLC connector) to the VCI. D Connect the blue connector of the MUT−III main harness to the vehicle’s data link connector. D Turn the VCI power switch ON. Verify the indicator lamp in the upper right corner of the screen is green. Page 5 of 11 TSB−14−13−002 ECU Reprogramming CAUTION DO NOT DISTURB THE HARNESS CABLES OR CONNECTIONS DURING THE REPROGRAMMING PROCESS AS IT COULD CAUSE THE CONTROL UNIT TO LOSE DATA OR PREVENT FUTURE REPROGRAMMING. IF THE USB CABLE IS DISCONNECTED DURING THIS PROCEDURE, A WARNING MESSAGE WILL DISPLAY. 1. Conduct the following steps to reprogram the ECM. a. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
