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 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.

Please discard PI1350. New steering gears have been released recently and new EPS calibrations should be applied on it. Old steering gears should be combined with old EPS calibrations. For this reason, matching the steering gear with the EPS calibration is very important. Please follow the procedures below for preventing mismatching between hardware and software. Replacing Steering Column 1. Lift the vehicle using a hoist and check the part number of the steering gear that is located on the area shown above . Note: This steering gear part number will be used to define steering gear (old or new) calibration ID. 2. Reprogram the EPS. Refer to Power Steering Control Module Programming and Setup below. Note: Adding the steering gear part number on the SPS web page will allow the operation software and calibration part number to display automatically on the page. 3. Confirm and complete EPS reprogramming by determining the operation software part number and calibration part number using the Calibration table. I the operation software part number and calibration part number are not correct, please verify the steering gear part number and try again. If the operation software part number and calibration part number are correct, reprogram the power steering control module. Replacing Steering Gear 1 1.
