ü Change in flash file from GFRS to other flash file requires factory
passwords.
ü Changing the transmission from Eaton Top II to different
transmission will require a different flash file. Factory Passwords
are required to make this change.
ü Transmission Neutral Switch
ü Neutral Switch is located on J1/P1:62 or over the 1939 Data link.
ü Neutral Switch is now programmable for all transmission styles.
ü This can affect Fast Idle, PTO, Elevated Idle, and Cruise Control.
4 Flashing ECMs
n Always transfer the flash file to the hard drive of your computer.
Computers communicate faster when the file is on the hard drive.
n Also try the bypass harness. There is a lot of information on the
data link from other devices such as ABS, or transmissions. This
isolates the ECM from this noise.
n By putting the file on the hard drive and using the bypass harness
this will allow a ECM to be flashed in less time.
n ACERT flash files are too big for floppy disks. Do not download
ACERT flash files to a floppy. The flash will abort. File needs to be
on a CD or downloaded directly from SIS web to the computer you
are using to flash the ecm. Files downloaded to a CD still need to be
copied to the computers hard drive.

Reminder
4 Blank Box
n Caterpillar ET may display the ECM as a blank box when it is
not.
n New ECMs are being used as test ECMs. The ECM is then
reflashed but aborted before the flash is complete. When Cat
ET is used it shows blank box. The ECM is then returned.
n The ECM is not blank. The application code is still in the
ECM.
n Another customer buys this ECM and flashes it. Passwords
are then required because a different file is used along with
other system parameters.
n Before allowing a ECM to be returned use your Caterpillar ET
and go to winflash. When winflash connects you will see the
ECMon the left side of the screen. Below that you will see old
software and new software. If there is a number next to the
old software text then the ECM has been previously flashed.

NOTE - When using either of the screens listed above (JTZ101-02 or GKN401-06) it will be necessary to
enter the new "Performance Spec" number and the serial number of the engine being rerated. After
flashing the new software file, you can find the new perfor mance spec on the ET configuration screen.
If you are rerating to a multi-torque rating, be sure to use the FLS/FTS values for the second
performance spec listed on the configuration screen.
