!NEW WARNING!: All Vehicles - PCM, BECM, SOBDMC, SOBDMB Updates available in FDRS

[WyldStallyn]

WARNING

Read THIS thread before attempting any of these recall remedy updates.





New updates posted in FDRS. I am still traveling so I will update this post as others report. (GWM and OBCC are from earlier in the week Thread Link)

Job 1 and 2022 have an additional SOBDM update.


Update Details
There is no confirmation that this update package is the one which will address the recall.

Regarding version numbers and the recall notice, it is possible that the SOBDMC listed in the "Remedy Component" list is a typo (as the same versions appear in both the recall and remedy component sections) and that this new version is actually the correct "Remedy Component" number.

BECM
The version being installed is the version listed in the Remedy Component section:

Standard Range: NJ98-14C197-AE
Extended Range: NJ98-14C197-BD
GT/GTPE: LK98-14C197-CG (No GT/GTPE versions are listed in the recall and remedy lists)

SOBDMC
This module has a lot more versions and the list below is a compilation of thread feedback and checking of available VIN numbers. EU versions are different and are obviously not referenced in the US recall notice.

2021
SR/ER AWD/RWD - New version is one version higher than **G version in remedy list. As with BECM, GT/GTPE versions are not listed in the recall and remedy lists.

SR AWD (EU): LJ98-14G069-AVH
SR AWD: LJ98-14G069-AXH
SR RWD: LJ98-14G069-AZ(H?)
ER AWD (EU): LJ98-14G069-BAH
ER AWD: LJ98-14G069-BBH
ER RWD: LJ98-14G069-BDH
GT: LK98-14G069-BM
GTPE: LK98-14G069-CM

2022
No versions match recall notice

SR AWD (EU): NJ98-14G069-A*
SR RWD (EU): LK98-14G069-C*
SR AWD: [Need feedback or VIN to check]
SR RWD: NJ98-14G069-M*
ER AWD (EU): [Need feedback or VIN to check]
ER AWD: NJ98-14G069-VB

Is this THEE update? (Related to the recall.)

Hope y’all like OTA inhibit updates!

What that mean

What that mean

If these are the recall fix, it will have to be one of those updates where the car needs to be parked.

 

[Logal727]

What that mean

Also I appreciate the Nathan reference lol

 

[WyldStallyn]

What that mean

@Logal727 is referring to OTA's which inhibit using the vehicle during the update. This thread is about FDRS connected updates which by nature prevent use while updating but when these updates come OTA they will likely be inhibit updates.

Thanks. My vehicle has never received an OTA update so in my info 'Inhibit Status' is listed as 'null.' I never knew what it was for but your explanation is very clear and makes perfect sense.

Doesnt the OTA server skip the download, if the vehicle reports the updated versions back? Thought I read that on some other thread.

Can you check the versions to see if they match the ones in the recall notice?

"The updated SOBDMC software (LJ98-14G069-AXG, LJ98-14G069-AZG,
LJ98-14G069-BBG, LJ98-14G069-BDG) will monitor contactor
temperature and intelligently reduce battery power to prevent damage to
the contactor. The updated BECM software (NJ98-14C197-AE,
NJ98-14C197-BD) will monitor contactor resistance to identify an
overheated contactor and reduce vehicle power to prevent further
damage"
