Cause
If installing a new Module, error messages or programming failure may be encountered
during the programming process, especially when the old Module is multiple part
number supercessions older than the one being installed. There have been several
software changes made in the background as new versions of the Module were released.
This may necessitate running Conversion Kits prior to programming the new Module in
order to receive the proper configuration from Central Systems.
Solution
To program a Conversion Kit and update Central Systems with proper part
information:
1. Check the part number of the original Module, and the Module being installed. Make
note of both numbers.
- Obtain part numbers from the label on the Modules. Do not use numbers from
product packaging for reference.
- Verify that the new Module is compatible with the chassis.
2. In PTT, go to the Program tab. Select 1700-22-03-04 - Conversion Kit. Press the Start
button in the lower right-hand corner of the screen to start the operation.
3. Press the Play button in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. The Conditions
window will open. Ensure that both conditions are met and check the boxes.
4. A list of all Conversion Kits available will open. Find the available kits for
Information Display. The part number of the Module currently installed should appear
next to the section header.
- NOTE: If there are no Conversion Kits displayed for the Module, power, ground,
and data links will need to be checked to ensure a communication or power supply
issue is not preventing programming.
5. Refer to the new Module part number. Each Conversion Kit listed will need to be run
one at a time starting from the lowest part number, up to but not past the part
number of the new Module.
- DO NOT go straight to the conversion kit that matches the part number. Older
kits must be run FIRST.
- NOTE: If the new Module has a part number that is not shown on the list, run
the Conversion Kits up to the closest number to but lower than the new Module
part number. Contact Tech Support through eService for the part number to be
updated in Central Systems once conversion kits have been run. Required
information for the eService case can be found at the end of this solution.
A. Select the first Kit on the list. Click Okay.
B. An alert will open advising that the Kit is ordered and VDA updated. Click OK
C. Wait for all steps to complete. It may take several minutes for the "Saving to job
card" step to complete the first time through.
D. Once the operation completes, press the Play button again. Repeat steps A and B
as necessary.
i. Once a kit has been run, the current part number will be updated and the
previously run kit will no longer be present on the list.
E. DO NOT RUN ANY KITS PAST THE PART NUMBER BEING
INSTALLED.
6. Once all of the necessary kits have been run, exit the operation. Refresh product data.
7. Program the Module as normal.
NOTE: It may be necessary for direct changes to be made once all available Conversion
Kits are run if programming still will not complete. Swapping a Standard ( MPH )
Module to a Metric ( KPH ) Module is a common example of this.
If programming will not complete after all Conversion Kits have been run:
• Start an eService case.
• In the case, provide:
- The new Module part number
- The old Module part number
- Advise that Conversion Kits have been run.
- Provide a screenshot (preferred) or a complete description of the error code
observed when programming.
