Flash: 2.4L Powertrain Diagnostic and System Improvements
This bulletin involves reprogramming the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with the latest
available software. A small number of customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
illumination or one or more of the following conditions. Upon further investigation the
technician may find the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) set in the PCM
memory: 2015 UF Vehicles with (Sales Codes ED6, ED8) P050D - Cold Start Rough Idle. P0335 - Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit. P1607 - PCM Internal Shutdown Timer Rationality. P0133 - O2 Sensor 1/1 Slow Response. P0456 - EVAP System Small Leak. P0480 - Cooling Fan 1 Control Circuit/Open. U0402 - Implausible Data Received From TCM. P2172 - High Airflow/Vacuum Leak Detected. P1D73 - AGS Performance. U0140 - Lost Communication With Body Control Module. P0441 - Evap Purge System Performance. P0116 - Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor 1 Performance.
In addition to the DTCs above the following improvements have been made:
· Engine Startup Flare and Idle Surge.
