SERVICE PROGRAMMING SYSTEM<br />
Performing Off-Board Programming Adapter (OBPA) Remote SPS<br />
The OBPA is used in situations where a module must be programmed without having the vehicle present.<br />
This need may arise, for example, when a dealership parts department sells a control module to a retail or<br />
aftermarket customer. To perform SPS in this scenario requires an off-board programming adapter. The<br />
adapter allows the module to be powered up and <strong>com</strong>municate with the scan tool. The part number for the<br />
OBPA kit is J-41207-C. It is available for purchase by calling 1-800-GM-TOOLS (1-800-468-6657), or send<br />
your order by fax at 1-800-578-7375.<br />
NOTICE<br />
Prior to performing SPS, it is important to heed the following precaution. Ensure that the <strong>Tech</strong> 2 and<br />
the terminal are both equipped with the latest software.<br />
Off-Board Remote Programming Procedure<br />
1. Obtain VIN of the vehicle for which the module is being programmed.<br />
IMPORTANT: TIS supports Service Programming with the <strong>Tech</strong> 2 scan tool only.<br />
2. Launch TIS. Select the Service Programming System icon on the TIS main screen (Figure VIIB-2).<br />
3. At the Select Diagnostic Tool and Programming Process screen (Figure VIIC-2), make the appropriate<br />
selection for your procedure:<br />
• Under “Select Diagnostic Tool,” select <strong>Tech</strong> 2.<br />
• Under “Select Programming Process,” identify whether an existing module is being reprogrammed or<br />
a module is being replaced with a new one.<br />
