HCU/TCU UPGRADE – FOR 100 MESH SOLENOID EQUIPPED
HYBRID TRANSMISSIONS
This bulletin has been revised to include additional information. New/revised
sections of this bulletin are indicated by a black bar in the margin area.
This bulletin provides information related to a software upgrade of the Hybrid Control Unit
(HCU) and the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) of some 2011~2016MY Optima Hybrid (TF
HEV) after replacement of the transmission with improved 100 mesh solenoids has taken place.
To apply the improved logic, the HCU/TCU should be reprogrammed using the GDS/KDS
download, as described in this bulletin.
 NOTICE
This update MUST be applied to vehicles receiving replacement transmissions with
the following part numbers:
P/N 45000-3D010
P/N 45000-3D340
When installing a transmission with 100 mesh solenoids, follow the repair flow chart shown
below:

 NOTICE
This update must be performed when a 100 mesh solenoid transmission is installed
in a vehicle which previously had a 400 mesh unit, otherwise, the customer may
experience drivability issues. Use the identification matrix on Page 2 to correctly
identify the replacement transmission. Do NOT apply this update unless a 100 mesh

A fully charged battery is necessary before ECM upgrade can take place. It is
recommended that the Midtronics GR8-1299 system be used in ECM mode during
charging. DO NOT connect any other battery charger to the vehicle during ECM upgrade.
All ECM upgrades must be done with the ignition key in the ‘ON’ position.
Be careful not to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or GDS during the ECM
upgrade procedure.
DO NOT start the engine during ECM upgrade.
DO NOT turn the ignition key ‘OFF’ or interrupt the power supply during ECM upgrade.
When the ECM upgrade is completed, turn the ignition ‘OFF’ and wait 10 seconds before
starting the engine.
ONLY use approved ECM upgrade software designated for the correct model, year.
 NOTICE
After performing the software upgrade, make sure to reset the TCM Adaptive
Learning Values by referring to TSB TRA 049.
CAUTION
Before attempting an ECM upgrade on any Kia model, make sure to first determine
whether the particular model is equipped with an immobilizer security system.
Failure to follow proper procedures may cause the PCM to become inoperative after
the upgrade and any claims associated with this repair may be subject to
chargeback.
