vehicle-information

Prepration:

4-digit pin code (you can pull pin by OBD2 based device, like Autek ikey820 or Xtool X100 PAD2, both work great on Chrysler group)

 

The PIN entered was the 4 digit secret key code. When the PCM was replaced on this vehicle theres a 4 digit key code (security related) that needs to be transferred from the WCM to installed PCM. There is a function tab on WiTech 2.0 under the WCM miscellaneous functions that is “PCM Replaced” WiTech checks the ignition status then the 4 digit key code is entered WiTech verifies the correct pin code was entered then transfers the PIN to the PCM allowing the PCM and WCM to shake hands for a lack of better terminology and allowing the vehicle to start and run. For the PCM Replaced Function the Correct Vehicle VIN is checked as well.

 

Procedure:

In wiTech software, select WCM (Wireless Control Module)->Misc Function->PCM Replaced
