SUBJECT:
DATA COLLECTION: EXTRACT CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS DATA
FROM ECU (DC003)

This bulletin provides information related to extracting "In use performance tracking" emissions data from the engine control unit (ECU) in certain vehicles sold in California. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) requires this emissions data to be extracted from the ECUs of a number of customer owned 2012 model year vehicles with a minimum of 3000 accumulated miles without reprogramming or resetting. To facilitate collection of this data at the dealer level GDS screen shots will allow the capture of relevant parameters.

THIS DATA COLLECTION DOES NOT APPLY TO VEHICLES OR DEALERS OPERATING OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA.

*NOTICE

IF THE VEHICLE MEETS THE CRITERIA BELOW, CALIFORNIA DEALERS MUST PERFORM THIS DATA COLLECTION ON VEHICLES WHENEVER AN AFFECTED VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP FOR ANY MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR.

THIS DATA COLLECTION DOES NOT APPLY TO VEHICLES OR DEALERS OPERATING OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA.

For vehicles listed on DOS as requiring this procedure follow the instructions in this bulletin after confirming that the following criteria are met:

^ WebDCS shows this as an open Data Collection code DC003A--->T (depending on model) for the vehicle

*NOTICE

Note that as sufficient data is collected, individual line items per model may be closed without updates to the TSB. Once a line item is closed on DCS, no further data collection is required. Data collections initiated after a line item is closed are subject to chargeback.

^ Vehicle has more than 3000 miles on its odometer.

^ Vehicle repair history does not show battery replacement/disconnection/reset or an ECU Update done in the last 3000 miles, because IUMPR (In Use Monitor Performance Ratio) data would have been cleared by such an event.

^ Vehicle does not have a check engine light ON.

CAUTION

If vehicle meets above criteria, collect data prior to any other campaign or repair-related activities.
