My 2007 C6 'Z' is sitting at a local dealers shop pending a replacement Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR) due to a software problem encountered when the dealer attempted to download software from GM supplier.

The car is imobilized - awaiting the component. Has anybody experienced this issue. The download is designed to eliminate battery drain problems (DBS).

Thanks

Bill

 

Did the dealer pull the radio and HVAC fuse like the bulletin reads before they starting the download?

Can they do a nation wide dealer inventory search for the RCDLR? Did they open a **** case?

 

I will ask - do you have a copy of the Bulletin? or a copy of the instructions - I'v not seen the content

There is one in the nation (TX) - and they have put the ubit into thei9r **** Case' -

Condition
Some customers may comment on a dead battery after the vehicle has been parked for a extended period of time. Typically, the battery will last approximately two weeks, depending on the initial state of battery charge.

Cause
A software anomaly within the remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR) causes an additional 30 mA draw on the battery when passive locking is enabled and the vehicle is parked.

Correction
Do This
Don't Do This

Reprogram the RCDLR.
DO NOT replace the RCDLR.


Important: Use the Pass-Thru method when programming and select "Replace and Reprogram ECU."

A new calibration has been released to correct this condition. Reprogram the RCDLR using SPS. This new service calibration is available on TIS2WEB.

Important: On Corvette models, prior to reprogramming, remove the Radio/S-Band/VICS 15-amp fuse and the HVAC/PWR SND 10-amp fuse from the I/P electrical center (passenger floor). Also, the ignition must be in the "Key On Engine Off" mode.

If the programming does not finish successfully and the RCDLR appears to be in a "locked-up" state, DO NOT turn off the ignition, it can be reset by removing the RCDLR fuse (#11 in the UBEC) for at least 30 seconds and reinstalling it. If the ignition was turned to OFF after the "locked up" condition occurred, its possible to continue programming by adding the VIN manually in TIS.

Tip
Transmitter programming and tire pressure learn procedures are NOT necessary after this reprogram.

Please refer to SI for additional information on other potential causes of battery drain.
