SUBJECT: IGNITION SWITCH ACCESSORY (ACC) POSITION MALFUNCTION OF AUTO POWER OFF No: TSB-22-54-006 DATE: December 2022 MODEL: 2020-21 Outlander Sport CIRCULATE TO: [ ] GENERAL MANAGER [ X ] PARTS MANAGER [ X ] TECHNICIAN [ X ] SERVICE ADVISOR [ X ] SERVICE MANAGER [ X ] WARRANTY PROCESSOR [ ] SALES MANAGER PURPOSE This Service Bulletin provides instructions to reprogram the ETACS-ECU with the latest software. BACKGROUND After about 30 minutes has elapsed with the ignition switch accessory in the "ACC" position, the function automatically cuts out the power for the audio system and other electric devices that can be operated with that position. Due to improper ETACS-ECU programming the signal that disables ACC auto cut function may not operate. Software changes which modify the logic of the ETACS-ECU will allow the auto power off function to operate as designed. Please reprogram the software upon customer complaint basis. AFFECTED VEHICLES 2020-2021 Outlander Sport (VIN Cut-off JA4APUAU7MU022501) ATTENTION: Turn off all electrical devices to minimize the vehicle's electrical load. Also use an external power source to ensure that the vehicle battery maintains the specified voltage during reprogramming. Low voltage of the auxiliary battery may cause incomplete reprogramming and should that occur the ECU may require replacement. Write down all the customer’s electrical device settings such as A/C and radio before reprogramming and restore them after reprogramming Connect the MUT-3 to an AC power source to prevent internal battery discharge. Before using, make sure the USB cable and MUT-3 main harness are not damaged. Do not perform maintenance work in the engine room during reprogramming. The cooling fan may operate while reprogramming. Check the All DTC after reprogramming and erase them (if any). Copyright 2022, Mitsubishi Motors North America, Inc. 12/5/2022 1 of 9 (5263) EQUIPMENT The following equipment is needed to reprogram the ECU: VCI (Vehicle Communication Interface) or VCI Lite - MB991824 or MB992744 MEDIC Laptop/Tablet with A/C power adapter - 520924, or FZG1MK2 MUT III Main Harness "A" (blue connector at the DLC end) - MB991910 or MB992745 USB 2.0 Cable - MB991827 or MB992747 MEDIC 3.5/4 update at 769 or higher For Standalone MUT III units, MUT-III SE Reprogramming Database N410001501 or higher • • • • • • • ECU REPROGRAMMING CHART SOFTWARE/MEDIC VERSION VERIFICATION PROCEDURE 1. Verify that the ETACS-ECU has not already been updated to the latest S/W number in the table above. If the ETACS-ECU is at the latest level, reprogramming is not necessary. NOTE: Reprogramming the ETACS-ECU with the latest database (e.g., N410001501) includes all past and current reprogramming for TSBs of affected vehicles. It is not necessary to reprogram the ETACS-ECU for each previous TSB. For MEDIC 3.5/4 users only: (MUT-III SEV users go to step 5) 2. Verify the MEDIC 3.5/4 is at version 3.5 and at update 769 or higher. If your MEDIC 3.5/4 update is at least 769, continue with the Reprogramming Procedure. If your MEDIC 3.5/4 update is below 769 update your MEDIC as follows: 12/5/2022 2 of 9 (5263) 3. Select the MEDIC 3.5/4 Admin tab and 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. 5. STANDALONE MUT-III SE SCAN TOOL VIEWER (STV) ONLY: (MEDIC 3.5 USERS – GO TO THE REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE). Verify that your MUT-III SE has the most current version of the reprogramming database from the MUT-III SE Main Page. a. Press the MUT-III SE STV icon. 12/5/2022 3 of 9 (5263) b. Press the Reprogramming button once the vehicle information is entered. c. Press "ECU Reprogramming (SDB)" button. d. Confirm that the database number displayed above the chart is N410001501 or higher. i. If the database number displayed on your MUT-III SE is N410001501 or greater, continue to the next section. ii. If the reprogramming database number displayed on your MUT-III SE is lower than N410001501, then the MUT-III SE database needs to be updated. iii. Once the database number is confirmed, hit the Home button to go back to the System Select screen. 12/5/2022 4 of 9 (5263) REPROGRAMMING PROCEDURE ! CAUTION To ensure that the vehicle battery maintains 12V during the procedure, hook- up a battery charger to the vehicle during the procedure. NOTE: VCI Stand−alone reprogramming is not available for this procedure. The laptop/tablet and the VCI must remain connected for the entire procedure. 1. Connect the equipment as follows: NOTE: VCI Lite and MEDIC 4.0 Toughpad shown for illustration purposes only. Data Link Connector (Blue End) MUT−III SE Main Harness USB Cable • Turn the MEDIC PC/tablet on. If the battery indicator in the lower right-hand corner of the screen does not show a full charge, it is recommended that either the battery be charged prior to beginning or be used with the A/C power adaptor connected. • Connect the USB cable to the VCI/VCI Lite. When the laptop/tablet displays the MUT-III SE main screen, connect the USB cable to the device. • Connect the MUT-III SE main harness with the blue DLC connection to the VCI/VCI Lite. Connect the blue connection of the MUT-III SE main harness to the vehicle's data link connector. • For VCI only (p/n MB991824): Turn the VCI power switch ON. Verify that the indicator lamp in the upper right corner of the screen is green. Toughpad (back) VCI Lite ! CAUTION DO NOT DISTURB THE HARNESS CABLES OR CONNECTIONS DURING THE REPROGRAMMING PROCESS AS IT COULD CAUSE THE CONTROL UNIT TO LOSE DATA. IF THE USB CABLE IS DISCONNECTED DURING THIS PROCEDURE, A WARNING MESSAGE WILL DISPLAY. NOTE: Due to limited space it may be easiest to connect battery charger cable onto ground point. 2.
