ACTION REQUIRED
Note: Always use the latest software available. Sometimes the flash file part numbers are updated before the program terminates. Download and save the software file(s) listed for the machine being serviced. The new software for all machines will be flashed to the ECM #1 controller (ECU 0,39 in the Plus+1 Service Tool). For group2 machines there are two listed software files, only one file can be flashed to the machine. Attempt to flash the first file to ECU 0,39 with the Plus+1 Service Tool for Caterpillar (P1STC). If the flash file is successfully installed, the process is complete, you will not need the second file. If a red colored "X" appears for the ECU, the flash file cannot be used for this machine and the other flash file must be used to flash ECU 0,39. Refer to Special Instruction REHS7696 for instructions on using P1STC for flashing the Machine Controller. |
