Dealer Service Instructions for:

Safety Recall V71 / NHTSA 19V-407 Occupant Restraint Controller

 

NOTE: The ABS Initialization routine MUST be performed after programming the ORC module.  Read and follow the Service Procedure steps.

 

Remedy Available

2019-2020(DT)RAMeBay logo 1500 Pickup

 

NOTE:  Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.

IMPORTANT:  Some of the involved vehicles may be in dealer new vehicle inventory.  Federal law requires you to complete this recall service on these vehicles before retail delivery.  Dealers should also consider this requirement toapply to used vehicle inventory and should perform this recall on vehicles in forservice.  Involved vehicles can be determined by using the VIP inquiry process.

 

Subject

The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) on about 142,250 of the above vehicles may contain software that has a potential vulnerability during power-down memory clean-up events which can corrupt flash memory. Once the vehicle is keyed-off, the ORC begins normal routines under its own power reserve. If the ORC powers down and interrupts a memory erase process, data corruption could occur. Memory cleanup does not occur every key-off, not all interruptions will cause corruption, reserve time will vary, and other factors make the occurrence highly variable. Corrupted ORC flash memory may result in internal fault codes, illuminated Airbag Warning Lamp, and disabled deployment of airbags and seatbelt pretensioners. Disabled airbag and seatbelt pretensioner deployment may increase the risk of injury to vehicle occupants in the event of a crash.

 

Repair

Inspect the ORC for the specific internal fault codes. If the specific Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC)s are present, replace the ORC. If the specific DTCs are not present, reprogram the ORC with updated software.

 

Alternate Transportation

Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner in a loaner vehicle if inspection determines that ORC module replacement is required and the vehicle must be held overnight.

 

Parts Information

No vehicles are expected to require ORC module replacement.  ORC module should not be ordered unless inspection of internal fault codes determines that ORC module replacement is required.  Use StarParts to determine the proper ORC module for specific vehicle application only if module replacement is required. 

NOTE: Within StarParts the part may be referenced as an “Airbag Control Module”.

 

Parts Return

No parts return required for this campaign.

 

Special Tools

The following special tools are required to perform this repair:

➢ NPNwiTECH MicroPod IIeBay logo
➢ NPNLaptop Computer
➢ NPNwiTECH Software

 

Service Procedure

.

A. Reprogram the ORC Module

NOTE: The wiTECH scan tool must be used to perform this recall. This procedure must be performed with the wiTECH MicroPod IIeBay logo at latest software release level.   If the reprogramming flash for the ORC is aborted or interrupted, repeat the procedure. The ORC must be at the latest calibration level after completing this recall.

  1. Open the hood. Install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides 13.2 to 13.5 volts.  Do not allow the charger to time out during the flash process.  Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.

NOTE:  Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter.  The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate.  Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash.  If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.

  1. Connect the wiTECH MicroPod IIeBay logo to the vehicle data link connector.
  2. Place the ignition in the “RUN” position.
  3. Open the wiTECH 2.0 website.
  4. Enter your “User id” and “Password” and your “Dealer Code”, then select “Sign In” at the bottom of the screen. Click “Accept”.
  5. From the “Vehicle Selection” screen, select the vehicle to be updated.
  6. From the “Action Items” screen, select the “Topology” tab.
  7. From the “Topology” screen, select the “View DTCs” tab.
  8. From the “DTCs” screen, inspect for the following fault codes DTCs:

These two together:
U1601-00  SW Version mismatch
B222D-00  ECU Unable to Configure/Configuration Not Learned-

or

These three together:
B2207-00  Occupant Restraint Controller Internal 1-
B2208-00  Occupant Restraint Controller Internal 2-
B222D-00  ECU Unable to Configure/Configuration Not Learned-

 

  1. Were any of the above fault codes DTCs present?
  • NO, codes are not present, continue with the software flash Step 11.
  • YES, codes are present. Replace ORC module then program the new module. Proceed as applicable to one of the following:

Section B. ORC Module Replacement with Floor Console, Page 6. Section C. ORC Module Replacement with Center Seat, Page 15.

  1. From the “ORC” screen, select the “Flash” tab, then compare the “Current Electronic Control Unit (ECU) Part Number” with the “New ECU Part Number” listed.
    • If the “Current ECU part Number” is NOT the same as the “New Part Number”, continue with Step 12.
    • If the “Current ECU part Number” is the same as the “New Part Number”, proceed to Step 23.
  2. From the flash ECU agreement page, agree to terms by checking the box.
  3. Select “Flash ECU” then follow the wiTECH screen instructions to complete the flash.
  4. Once the flash is complete, select the “View DTCs” tab.
  5. Select “Clear All DTCs” and then select “Close”.
  6. From the “Topology” screen, click on the “ABS” icon.
  7. From the “ABS” screen, select the “Misc Functions” tab.

B. ORC Module Replacement with Floor Console

  1. Position the front seats fully forward.
  2. Remove the floor console rear closeouts on both sides of the console (Figure 1).
  3. Remove the rear bolts on both sides of the floor console (Figure 1).
  4. Position both front seats fully rearward.

NOTE: When disconnecting and isolating the negative battery cable for the 12-volt system, this will also power down the 48-volt battery system. No extra steps will be needed for a power down of the 48-volt system.

  1. Disconnect the Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) wire harness connector (Figure 2).

NOTE: Failure to disconnect the IBS wire harness connector can lead to damage of the IBS wire harness connector.

  1. Remove the ground terminal M8 nut then remove and isolate the negative battery cable eyelet from the IBS and negative battery terminal (Figure 2).

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the SRS before attempting ORC module service. Disconnect the IBS and negative battery cable assembly from the negative battery post, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before disconnecting the ORC module. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

  1. Remove the Instrument Panel (IP) closeouts on both sides of the floor console (Figure 3).
  2. Remove the bolts from the floor console to IP on both sides of the floor console (Figure 3).
  3. Remove the side closeouts on both sides of the floor console (Figure 3).
  4. Remove the front bolts on both sides of the floor console (Figure 3).
  5. Lift the rear seat cushion to make removal of the floor console easier.
  6. Slide the floor console slightly back towards the rear of the vehicle to access the electrical connectors (Figure 4).
  7. Disconnect the electrical connectors (Figure 4).
  8. Release the wire harness retainer (Figure 4).
  9. Remove the floor console from vehicle.

  12. Remove the ORC from the vehicle (Figure 5). Render the ORC unusable and discard the ORC.
  13. Carefully position the NEW ORC on the weld studs on the top of the floor panel center tunnel. When the ORC is correctly positioned, the bottom of the housing will fit flush with the top of the center floor and the orientation arrow on the label on top of the housing will be pointed forward in the vehicle (Figure 5).
  14. Install the three nuts that secure the ORC to the weld studs on the top of the floor panel center tunnel. Tighten the nuts to 12 N·m (9 Ft. lbs.) (Figure 5).
  15. Connect both ORC wire harness connectors. Be certain that the latch on each connector is fully engaged (Figure 5).
  16. Position the floor console inside the vehicle and over the support brackets.
  17. Attach the wire harness retainer (Figure 4).
  18. Connect the wire harness connectors (Figure 4).

  2. For vehicles equipped with Keyless Go ignition:
    1. Remove the steering column opening cover (Figure 6).
    2. Remove the ORC fuses F28 and F65 (Figure 6).
    3. Connect the 12-Volt battery, wait two minutes before proceeding. If equipped with an IBS, connect the IBS connector.
