7. If the software in the ECM/PCM is the latest,
disconnect the HDS/HIM from the DLC, and go back
to the procedure that you were doing. If the
software in the ECM/PCM is not the latest, follow
the instructions on the screen. If prompted to
choose the PGM-FI system or the A/T system, make
sure you update both.

to cool the ECM/PCM, follow the instructions on
screen. If you run into a problem during the update
procedure (programming takes over 15 minutes,
status bar goes over 100 %, D or immobilizer light
flashes, HDS tablet freezes, etc.), follow these steps
to minimize the chance of damaging the ECM/PCM:
• Leave the ignition switch in the ON (II) position.
• Connect a jumper battery (do not connect a
battery charger).
• Shut down the HDS.
• Disconnect the HDS from the DLC.
• Reboot the HDS.
• Reconnect the HDS to the DLC, and try the
update procedure again.

the throttle body (see page 11-385).
