Removal
CAUTION: The steps included in the vehicle security module removal and installation procedure are critical to restoring the vehicle security
and tire pressure monitoring systems to normal operation. A new vehicle security module is delivered in manufacturing mode with 6 pre-set
diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). The presence of these DTCs requires the installation
procedures be followed in order to clear the DTCs and enable normal vehicle security module operations.
1. NOTE: Prior to the removal of the vehicle security module, it is necessary to upload the module configuration information to the diagnostic tool.
This information must be downloaded to the new vehicle security module after installation.
Disconnect the battery.
2. Remove the pin-type retainer and the RH A-pillar lower trim panel.
