Continuous improvement software updates are being released with improvements made in several areas. Cause The cause of the condition may be software anomalies in the radio. Correction A new radio software update, version 135120, was released to service for vehicles equipped with Infotainment system RPO IOR. In addition to providing general robustness and stability enhancements, this update includes all enhancements from previous software version releases. Along with the vehicles mentioned above, vehicles in unconnected markets, and fleet customers may need the dealer to reprogram the radio with the new software package. 135120 Most Notable Improvements Important: Improvements will vary by model, build configuration, system, and sales region. Not all vehicles have all features. Most notable improvements contained in this release may include: • Improvements to Rearview Camera (RVC) performance • Improvements made to preventing radio resets after USB communication failures • Removing the RVC guideline button on the box delete trucks • Fixing the issue where the logging screen is randomly displayed 6049197 Bulletin No.: 22-NA-085 April, 2022 Service Procedure Caution: Before downloading the update files, be sure the computer is connected to the internet through a network cable (hardwired). DO NOT DOWNLOAD or install the files wirelessly. If there is an interruption during programming, programming failure or control module damage may occur. • 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 12V 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. Page 3 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. Page 4 April, 2022 Bulletin No.: 22-NA-085 Caution: Be sure the VIN selected in the drop down menu (1) is the same as the vehicle connected (2) before beginning programming. 5743643 Important: If the vehicle VIN DOES NOT match, the message below will be shown. 5877000 Bulletin No.: 22-NA-085 April, 2022 Page 5 5644477 Important: Techline Connect screen shown above. Important: If the same calibration/software warning is noted on the TLC or SPS Summary screen, select OK and follow screen instructions. After a successful programming event, the WCC is located in the Service Programming System dialogue box of the SPS Summary screen. Document the WCC on the job card. No further action is required. Refer to the Warranty Information section of this bulletin. 1. Reprogram the Radio. Refer to A11 Radio: Programming and Setup in SI. Page 6 April, 2022 Bulletin No.: 22-NA-085 5644478 Note: The screenshot above is an example of module programming and may not be indicative of the specific module that is being programmed. Module selection and VIN information have been blacked out. Important: To avoid warranty transaction rejections, you MUST record the warranty claim code provided on the Warranty Claim Code (WCC) screen shown above on the job card. Refer to callout 1 above for the location of the WCC on the screen. 2. Record the Warranty Claim Code on the job card for warranty transaction submission. Bulletin No.: 22-NA-085 April, 2022 Warranty Information For vehicles repaired under the Bumper-to-Bumper coverage (Canada Base Warranty coverage), use the following labor operation. Reference the Applicable Warranties section of Investigate Vehicle History (IVH) for coverage information: Labor Operation 2888628* Description Labor Time Radio Reprogramming with 135120 Software 0.6 hr *This is a unique Labor Operation for bulletin use only. Important: To avoid warranty transaction rejections, carefully read and follow the instructions below: • The Warranty Claim Code must be accurately entered in the “SPS 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 “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field of the transaction, otherwise the transaction will reject. It is best practice to enter the FINAL code provided by SPS/SPS2. Version 1 Modified Released April 22, 2022 Page 7 Warranty Claim Code Information Retrieval If the Warranty Claim Code was not recorded on the Job Card, the code can be retrieved in the SPS2 system as follows: 1. Open TLC on the computer used to program the vehicle. 2. Select and start SPS2. 3. Select Settings. 4. Select the Warranty Claim Code tab. 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. 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 equipment, tools, 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 GM dealer for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information. WE SUPPORT VOLUNTARY TECHNICIAN CERTIFICATION
