How to apply it

  2. Connect FORScan with a battery maintainer on, ignition ON and engine OFF.
  3. Open Configuration and Programming, choose the IPC module, open As-Built Format and edit only the digit described by the source.
  4. Write, follow any module reset prompt, cycle the ignition, then confirm the feature and check for new trouble codes.
