REPAIR PROCEDURE
NOTE:
After you do the software update(s), the IMA system will have the following differences. All of them are normal operating characteristics:
^
When at an auto idle stop, the engine restarts sooner. It also now restarts with only two bars displayed on the IMA battery level gauge.
^
Even with up to four bars displayed on the IMA battery level gauge, auto idle stop may not occur.
^
The IMA system reserves battery power to ensure enough power is available to start the vehicle from a stop and for initial acceleration. This reduces
the IMA assist as the vehicle speed increases. This change increases the battery's stored energy and overall performance.
^
The IMA battery level gauge more accurately indicates the battery's state-of-charge. Customers will also notice that the level bars stay in the middle
of the gauge much longer.
1. Use the HDS to update the PGM-FI software. If needed, also update the IMA battery software and the A/T (CVT) software. For updating
information, refer to Service Bulletin 01-023, Updating Control Units/Modules.
