Removal and Installation

NOTE: Prior to removal of the module, it is necessary to upload the module configuration to a scan tool. This information needs to be downloaded into the new module once installed. For additional information, refer to Module Configuration Programming and Relearning.

1. NOTE: A new Rear Audio and Temperature Control (RATC) module is delivered in a manufacturing mode with pre-set DTC B2477 (Module Configuration Failure). This DTC clears when the module has been successfully configured during Programmable Module Installation (PMI).

NOTE: This step is necessary only if a new RATC module is being installed.

Upload the module configuration information from the RATC module. For additional information, refer to Module Configuration Programming and Relearning.

2. Remove the rear seat backrest. For additional information, refer to Seating Rear Seat.

3. Drill out the 2 rivets, disconnect the electrical connector and remove the RATC module.

4. NOTE: Once the new module is installed (if it was replaced), it is necessary to download the module configuration information from the scan tool into the new module. For additional information, refer to Module Configuration Programming and Relearning.

To install, reverse the removal procedure.

- Using the Heavy Duty Riveter, install the new rivets.
