GENERAL INFORMATION
DaimlerChrysler Computer Relearn Procedures
INTRODUCTION
Vehicles equipped with engine or transmission/transaxle
computers may require a computer relearn procedure after the vehicle
battery is disconnected. Vehicle computers memorize and store vehicle
operation patterns for optimum driveability and performance. When the
vehicle battery is disconnected, this memory is lost, resulting in a
driveability problem. Depending on the vehicle and how it is equipped,
the following driveability problems may exist:
* Rough or unstable idle.
* Hesitation or stumble.
* Rich or lean running.
* Poor fuel mileage.
* Harsh or poor transmission/transaxle shift quality.
Default data is used until NEW data from each key start is
stored. As the computer restores its memory from each new key start,
driveability is restored.
Driveability problems may occur during the computer relearn
stage. To accelerate computer relearn process after battery removal
and installation, specified computer relearn procedures should be
performed. See appropriate procedures under specified manufacturer.
COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES
ALL MODELS
NOTE: Read all procedures listed to determine why each procedure is
to be performed before proceeding.
Vehicle Driveability Computer Relearn Procedure
Manufacturer does not provide a specified computer relearn
procedure for obtaining proper driveability. If vehicle battery was
disconnected or Powertrain Control Module (PCM) was replaced, driving
the vehicle will enable the PCM to perform a computer relearn
procedure for obtaining proper driveability. Inform customer that
driveability may differ from what they are accustomed to until the PCM
completes the computer relearn procedure.
NOTE: If Powertrain Control Module (PCM) was replaced, the correct
vehicle mileage and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) must
be programmed into the PCM to prevent Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTCs) from being set in the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) module and Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) module\
.
To program PCM and clear DTCs from ABS and SRS modules,
proceed to appropriate procedure listed. If replacing
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) on models equipped with a
Smart Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), the secret key data must\
also be updated to enable engine starting. To update secret
key data, proceed to appropriate procedure listed.
Programming PCM & Clearing DTCs From ABS & SRS Modules
Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC) below driver's\
side of instrument panel. Using scan tool, enter correct VIN and
mileage into PCM. Using scan tool manufacturer's instructions, clear

10) Depress and release CANCEL switch. If S/C disengages, go
to next step. If S/C did not disengage, repair is not complete. Check
for related TSBs and return to TROUBLE SHOOTING, if necessary.
11) Ensure vehicle speed is greater than 35 MPH. Engage speed
control. Turn S/C on/off switch to OFF position. If speed control
disengages, system is operating correctly. Repair is complete. If
speed control does not disengage, repair is not complete. Check for
related TSBs and return to TROUBLE SHOOTING, if necessary.
TEST VER-5A
NOTE: If PCM has been replaced and correct VIN and mileage have not
been programmed, a FTC will be set in ABS and air bag
modules. If vehicle is equipped with a Sentry Key Immobilizer
Module (SKIM), sentry key data must be updated to enable
starting. See COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL
INFORMATION.
1) If vehicle is not equipped with a diesel engine, go to
next step. If vehicle is equipped with a diesel engine, and PCM has
been disconnected or replaced, battery has been disconnected, or
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (APPS) has been disconnected or
replaced, APPS calibration must be programmed into PCM (diesel only).
Turn ignition on. Slowly press accelerator pedal to floor and slowly
release. DO NOT attempt to adjust screws or disassemble APPS. Go to
next step.
2) On all engines, if vehicle is equipped with ABS or air
bag, enter correct VIN and mileage in PCM. Erase DTCs in ABS and air
bag modules. Inspect vehicle to ensure all engine and speed control
system components are connected.
3) If there are any DTCs that have not been repaired, go to
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. After all DTCs have been repaired, run
appropriate monitor for previously repaired FTC.
4) Connect scan tool to DLC. Ensure fuel tank is at least 1/4
full. Turn off all accessories. Allow PCM to run appropriate monitor
and increment appropriate good trip. Enabling conditions must be met
before monitor will run.
5) Using scan tool, monitor pretest enabling conditions until
all conditions have been met. Once enabling conditions have been met,
monitor appropriate monitor.
6) If repaired FTC has reset or was seen in monitor while on
road test, repair is not complete. Check for TSBs or flash updates and
return to TROUBLE SHOOTING.
7) If appropriate monitor ran, good trip counter incremented
and no DTCs have been set, repair is complete.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
WARNING: Vehicle is equipped with an air bag. Air bag must be
deactivated before servicing speed control components on or
around steering column. See AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEMS -
TRUCKS article.
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may exist
until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle. See
COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION
before disconnecting battery.
