Condition
Some customers may comment on a Check Engine light displayed in the DIC and experiencing no driving issues.
Cause
The cause of the condition may be ECM calibration timing causing the MIL to set during “windmilling” of cooling fan, especially at restart during a stop/start event.
If this occurs on two consecutive ignition cycles, the technician may find DTC P0494 set current or in recent history.
Correction
Reprogram the engine control module (ECM).

Service Procedure
Caution: Before downloading the update files, be sure
the computer is connected to the internet through a
network cable (hardwired). DO NOT DOWNLOAD or
install the files wirelessly. If there is an interruption
during programming, programming failure or control
module damage may occur.
Note: Carefully read and follow the instructions below.
• Ensure the programming tool is equipped with the
latest software and is securely connected to the
data link connector. If there is an interruption
during programming, programming failure or
control module damage may occur.
• Stable battery voltage is critical during
programming. Any fluctuation, spiking, over
voltage or loss of voltage will interrupt
programming. Install a GM Authorized
Programming Support Tool to maintain system
voltage. Refer to www.gmdesolutions.com for
further information. If not available, connect a fully
charged 12V jumper or booster pack disconnected
from the AC voltage supply. DO NOTconnect a
battery charger.
• Turn OFF or disable systems that may put a load
on the vehicles battery such as; interior lights,
exterior lights (including daytime running lights),
HVAC, radio, etc.
• Clear DTCs after programming is complete.
Clearing powertrain DTCs will set the Inspection/
Maintenance (I/M) system status indicators to NO.
Caution: Be sure the VIN selected in the drop down
menu (1) is the same as the vehicle connected (2)
before beginning programming.

Important: Techline Connect and TIS2WEB screens
shown above.
Important: If the same calibration/software warning is
noted on the TLC or SPS Summary screen, select OK
and follow screen instructions. After a successful
programming event, the WCC is located in the Service
Programming System dialogue box of the SPS
Summary screen. No further action is required. Refer to
the Warranty Information section of this bulletin.
Important: When programming a module in GM’s new
Vehicle Intelligence Platform, or VIP, the power mode
(ignition) needs to be off or errors may occur. This
involves the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac CT5 and
CT4, as well as the upcoming full-size Chevrolet, GMC,
Cadillac SUVs and Buick Envision. Serial Data
Message Authentication also needs to have the
ignition off.
1. Reprogram the Engine Control Module. Refer to
K20 Engine Control Module: Programming and
Setup in SI.

Note: The screenshots above are an example of
module programming and may not be indicative of the
specific module that is being programmed. Module
selection and VIN information have been blacked out.
Important: To avoid warranty transaction rejections,
you MUST record the warranty claim code provided on
the SPS Warranty Claim Code (WCC) screen shown
above on the job card. Refer to callout 1 above for the
location of the WCC on the SPS screen.
2. Record the SPS Warranty Claim Code on the job
card for warranty transaction submission.
Warranty Information
For vehicles repaired under the Emission coverage,
use the following labor operation. Reference the
Applicable Warranties section of Investigate Vehicle
History (IVH) for coverage information.
Important: Warranty coverage code E2 applies for this
module programming event. ECM reprogramming is
covered for 8 years/80,000 miles (U.S.) or 8 years/
130,000 km (Canada).
Labor
Operation
Description Labor Time
2887228* ECM Reprogramming with

*This is a unique Labor Operation for bulletin use only.
Important: To avoid warranty transaction rejections,
carefully read and follow the instructions below:
• The Warranty Claim Code must be accurately entered
in the “SPS Warranty Claim Code” field of the

1. Open TLC/TIS on the computer used to program
the vehicle.
2. Select and start SPS/SPS2.
3. Select Settings.
4. Select the Warranty Claim Code tab.
The VIN, Warranty Claim Code and Date/Time will be
listed on a roster of recent programming events. If the

Reprogramming
GM Diagnostic/Programming (TIS2Web)
Approved J2534 Device with TIS2WEB can reprogram 1996 and later All GM Modules.
To obtain the latest electronic controller calibration information for your vehicle, go to https://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web and enter the vehicle's 17 character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and select 'Get CAL ID’.
You can then compare the latest part number with the actual number installed on the vehicle to determine if a reprogram is needed.
The Service Programming System (SPS) application is part of the TIS2Web system. To program an ECU, the SPS application must communicate with the vehicle control modules using the proper J2534 programming interface tool.
The following are the supported interface tools:
The Tech 2 supports model years 1996 and beyond. With the addition of the CAN Diagnostic Interface (CANdi) module, Tech 2 is fully backward compatible with current Tech 2 functionality and operates transparently when diagnosing non-CAN-equipped vehicles.
Servicing the next generation Global A vehicles will require the diagnostic software, GDS2, Global Diagnostic System 2 running on a local PC device while the MDI is connected to the vehicle. The GM MDI is the Global Diagnostic tool for future vehicles starting with Global A vehicles.
The GM MDI was introduced in the fall of 2007 for Pass-Thru programming and offers faster programming speed. It can be used to perform Pass-Thru programming on all vehicles built since 1996 and into the future. Click here to view a list of GDS supported vehicles.
