Grand Prix V8-5.3L (2007)
The calibration numbers required for this service procedure are programmed into control modules via a Techline Tech 2(R) scan tool and the
Techline Information System (TIS) 2000 terminal with the calibration update. Use data version 1.0 for 2007 or later, broadcast to dealers on
January 08, 2007 (in Canada, January 17, 2007), or TIS 2 Web version 1.0 for 2007 (website version of TIS) on January 08, 2007 and on TIS
DVD version 1.0/2007 or later, that was mailed to dealers on 01/17/07. If you cannot access the calibration, call the Techline Customer
Support Center at 1-800-828-6860 (English) or 1-800-503-3222 (French) and it will be provided.
Notice:
Before reprogramming, please check the battery condition to prevent a reprogramming error of any of the modules due to battery discharge.
Battery voltage must be between 12 and 16 volts during reprogramming. If the vehicle battery is not fully charged, use jumper cables from an
additional battery. Be sure to turn off or disable any system that may put a load on the battery, such as automatic headlamps, daytime running
lights, interior lights, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system, radio, engine cooling fan, etc. A programming failure or
control module damage may occur if battery voltage guidelines are not observed.
The ignition switch must be in the proper position. The Tech 2(R) prompts you to turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. DO NOT change the
position of the ignition switch during the programming procedure, unless instructed to do so.
Make certain all tool connections are secure, including the following components and circuits:
^
The RS-232 communication cable port
^
The connection at the data link connector (DLC)
^
The voltage supply circuits
DO NOT disturb the tool harnesses while programming. If an interruption occurs during the programming procedure, programming failure or
control module damage may occur.
DO NOT turn OFF the ignition if the programming procedure is interrupted or unsuccessful. Ensure that control module and DLC connections are
secure and the TIS terminal operating software is up to date.
