Campaign - IPC Reprogram for Tire Monitor System
Subject:
Customer Satisfaction-Tire Pressure Monitor System Malfunction-Reprogram Computer
# 06219 - (02/15/2007)
Models:
2007 Saturn Aura
************PROGRAM IS IN EFFECT UNTIL FEBRUARY 29, 2008**********
Condition
The low tire pressure telltale on certain 2007 model year Saturn Aura vehicles may not work as described in the owner manual when there is a system
malfunction.
When an underinflated tire is detected, the system turns on the low tire pressure telltale, with no flashing, and also displays the message "CHECK TIRE
PRESS" in the Driver Information Center. This portion of the system is working as described in the owner manual.
If there is a malfunction, the system is designed to flash the low tire pressure telltale for about 60 seconds and then remain on. The light will perform this
way the first time the car is started, but it will stay on, rather than flash for 60 seconds, the next time the car is started.
Correction
Retailers are to reprogram the instrument cluster
Vehicles Involved
Involved are certain 2007 Saturn Aura vehicles built within the VIN breakpoints shown.
Important:
Retailers are to confirm vehicle eligibility prior to beginning repairs by using the AS400 system. Not all vehicles within the above breakpoints may
be involved.
For retailers with involved vehicles, a listing with involved vehicles containing the complete vehicle identification number, customer name, and address
information has been prepared and will be provided through the Facility VIN List (included with bulletin in GM DealerWorld). Retailers will not have a
report available if they have no involved vehicles currently assigned.
The listing may contain customer names and addresses obtained from Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration
data for any purpose other than follow-up necessary to complete this program is a violation of law in several states/provinces/countries. Accordingly, you
are urged to limit the use of this report to the follow-up necessary to complete this program.
Parts Information
No parts are required for this program.
Service Procedure
Important:
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). Use TIS 2 Web version 1.5 for 2007 (website version of TIS), and on TIS DVD version 2.0 2007 or later,
that was mailed to retailers on February, 14, 2007. If you cannot access the calibration, call the Techline Customer Support Center.
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
