REQUIRED TOOLS AND SOFTWARE

Reprogramming Procedure:

1. Log onto the Suzuki Connect and access the Suzuki Pitstop.

2. Download and review the Suzuki Pass-Thru Reprogramming Tool Operators Manual. This must be read and understood COMPLETELY before attempting to reprogram the ECM.

3. Following the procedure outlined in the Suzuki Pass-Thru Reprogramming Tool Operator's Manual, download and install the Pass-Thru Reprogramming Software "SOFTWARE.EXE" if it is not already installed with the version shown above.

4. Download and unzip Suzuki Pass-Thru Reprogramming Data Base "DATABASE.EXE" onto your PC. Follow the procedure in Section 3.2 of the Operator's Manual to update the Database files. This step is only required to be done once to accommodate all vehicles covered under this TSB.

NOTE:
This Database "DATABASE.EXE" is updated regularly with newer data for reprogramming without changing the file name. Check the version you have installed on your PC. Refer to TSB General, General Information, TS 05 XXXXX, Electronic Control Unit (ECU) Reprogramming Verification... for more information.





5. Following the procedures outlined in the Suzuki Pass-Thru Reprogramming Tool Operator's Manual, hook up the SDS Interface Tool P/N 09910-06520 to the vehicle and run the ECM reprogramming software. Continue to step 6. If the message "[4028] ECU already has the latest version" appears, click "OK and "Finish". No further action is required.





6. Fill out the Reprogram Label P/N 99963-01501-224 (the part number and version will be displayed at the "The reprogramming is successful" screen). Then affix the label to the back of the glove box door as pictured above.
