Add/Remove

When you program a key / remote control, change a control module or fit an electrical accessory, you need to access a new menu called "Add / Remove". The menu option marries and separates components in relation to the car. During "divorcing", critical data can be copied from a control module which is later loaded into the new control module. Remember that any SPS programming should be done before an "Add" operation. You must also retrieve "Security Access" for control modules included in the car's immobilization function. This is retrieved via RS 232 from TIS 2000 when the diagnostic tool requests it. You can also retrieve security access in advance and then kept it for the entire time you are working on the car in question, even if you disconnect the diagnostic tool now and again. Key programming and some activations that concern the central locking system and electric window lifts, for example, are also protected and require security access.

When the Control Module Is To Be Replaced

1. Place the old control module in the return packaging without touching its pins.
2. Keep the new control module in its packaging as long as possible.

Before removing a control module, Tech 2 must be used to separate the control module from the car. From the "All" menu, select the control module under "And/Remove". Then select "Remove" and follow the instructions. The ignition key must be in the ON position. TIS 2000 may be required. Once the control module has been separated from the car, turned the ignition key to the OFF position. The control module can then be removed. Carry out the "Remove" action with Tech2 even if the control module cannot be contacted or is completely missing because data in other control modules must be changed.

When the Component Is To Be Replaced

1. Place the component in the return packaging without touching its pins.
2. Keep the new component in its packaging for as long as possible.
