Module Configuration: Overview Jaguar S-type I

  1. The complexity of the electronics involved with module configuration, of which the DDM, GEM, REM and instrument cluster is a part, and the multiplexed communication network which are connected to it preclude the use of workshop general electrical test equipment. Therefore, reference should be made to the PDU User Guide for detailed instructions on module configuration.

Principles of Operation

Note. Newly released modules will require configuration after being installed on the vehicle. All configurable modules will be packaged in a kit which contains a warning label and a multi-language sheet reemphasizing the requirements to configure replacement modules.

Note. The powertrain control module (PCM) has to be standard J1962 lead.

There are two modes of configuration data. The first type requires configuration information so that the module can interact with the vehicle correctly. This information will be transferred into the new module so that the new module will contain the same settings as the old module. Modules on the vehicle that require configuration when installing a replacement module are

  1. The anti-lock brake control module with traction control.
  2. The anti-lock brake control module with traction control and dynamitic stability control.
  3. The remote keyless entry driver door module (DDM).
  4. Steering lock control module (SCLM).
  5. Driver seat module (DSM)
  6. Audio control module (ACM)
  7. Vehicle emergency message system/Jaguar assist (VEMS/JA)
  8. Dual automatic temperature control (DATC)
  9. The instrument cluster with message center.
  10. The rear electronic module (REM).
  11. The general electronic module (GEM).

To carry out the configuration process

  1. Upload the old information from the old module using the PDU (if applicable).
  2. Install the new module. For additional information on the anti-lock brake control module, refer to «ANTI-LOCK CONTROL-STABILITY ASSIST»(ref-199530) . For additional information on the DDM, refer to «HANDLES, LOCKS, LATCHES AND ENTRY SYSTEMS»(ref-207823) . For additional information on the instrument cluster, refer to «INSTRUMENT CLUSTER»(ref-199557) . For additional information on the GEM and the REM, refer to «MULTIFUNCTION ELECTRONIC MODULES»(ref-199572) . NOTE: The PDU will not retain the stored configuration information for longer than 24 hours.
  3. Download the stored information into the new module using the PDU (if applicable).

If you are unable to carry out the configuration process, refer to Inspection and Verification.
