SECTION: 8D
The 1988 Toronado Body Computer Module (BCM) includes an EEPROM that contains specific vehicle information such as: Vehicle Identification
Number, accumulated vehicle mileage, certain vehicle options, and other information. Due to this information, an EEPROM CANNOT be exchanged
from one vehicle to another. If the EEPROM malfunctions as indicated by BCM code B556, it will be necessary to obtain a replacement from an
authorized Delco Electronics Service Center listed below.
The following information must be given to the Delco Electronics Service Center when ordering a new EEPROM:
1.
Complete Vehicle Identification Number
2.
Whether or not the vehicle was built for U.S. or foreign country operation (Z49)
3.
Whether or not the vehicle is equipped with twilight sentinel option (T82)
4.
Whether or not the vehicle is equipped with voice module option (UV1)
5.
Current mileage of vehicle
The replacement EEPROM will be received with a claim form from the Service Center. The form is to be completed by the dealership and returned to
the Service Center with the malfunctioning EEPROM. One copy of the claim form is to be retained by the dealership and attached to the repair order.
Failure to return the malfunctioning EEPROM with the claim form will result in the assessment of a $200.00 core charge.
Zone offices will be notified of any EEPROMs not returned within 60 days. All replaced EEPROMs returned to the Service Center will be forwarded to
Delco Electronics for evaluation and reading.
