ECU module programming guide using FDRS

[Jesse-Infotainment]

Ok. It stopped and is now back to module configuration.....



.

Pretty normal until you cycle the ignition or it finishes config

AFAIK that's only for 8" clusters. 12" display was much faster.

Mine sure as shit was not faster, took just over 3 hours start to finish.

I guess I better get the battery charger out!

That's what I did. Even with a good battery I wasn't taking chances. No reason to give the truck any chance of rejecting it!

been trying to update to 6.8 for daysssss for some reason something keeps interupting the progress or it says it'll try on the next scheduled time. i tried to manually do it and it said something about postponing.
Im assuming my battery level is too low.

also, whats everyones take on a great charger to have while doing FDRS updates?

Still on sale, too.

That’s what I purchased and worked great for FDRS updates and ForScan changes.

The generic message will always say interrupted. It's low battery level nearly every time. It is winter in most of country so batteries tend to get low from cold starts. You can check battery SOC in Forscan and OBDLink app on a Bluetooth device if you are curious what the truck thinks about the battery.

wonder if i should just throw a battery charger on it for a bit and see if i can raise the SOC and battery level just a bit.

Need some advice...IPMA has been running now a total of 8 or so hours...the last 5 or so on "module is now being configured". Truck shut off. Seems to be in an endless loop. Should I wait, abort or something else.

It definitely won't hurt. In your case, the OTA you have currently failing is reporting VERY substandard battery conditions. Capacity is very low and SoC is low, too.

"errorCode":"InhibitRequiredHvNotQualifiedLvLow(204)""totalLvBatteryCapacity":"22""currentLvBatteryDataQuality":"OK""currentLvBatteryVoltage":"12""currentLvBatterySoc":"52""currentLvBatteryTemperature":"16""dynamicPostUpdateSocThreshold":"41""estimatedTimeToActivate":"420""estimatedTimeIncludingRollback":"648""currentDrainRate":"9"

I am inclined to say to run a PMI on the IPMA and when FDRS asks if it is the original module, you select "no". However, I would wait for @Jesse-Infotainment to see this and chime in first.

Thanks. Sent him a PM also so I'll hang tight for now.

Let us know what he recommends several people have come across this same issue.
