When you replace the battery, you don't need to register it in order for it to work and the car to start. You need to register it to provide adequate charge information to other modules for correct draw, or risk significantly reducing the life of the battery or worse.

Waking up an old thread.
Thanks Downeaster1, I've been hit with the dreaded Passive Go module flooding issue also. Replacement unit from eBay is on the way, and have been thinking about this coding issue.
Can only the dealer do the coding procedure, or is it possible for anyone with one of the 3rd party coding apps to do this? Is there a specific set of steps or when "coding a module", it's only a single procedure being referenced and there's only one way to do it?
Thanks in advance. |
You?ll need someone with either the factory ISTA/P or an Autologic table to code them correctly.
