ACTION REQUIRED

Show/hide table

1. Inspect the box label on 10R4089 Electronic Control Modules in dealer parts stock. Refer to Image1 for details on how to read the date code on the box label.
If the box label is not available, proceed to Step 2.

- If the date code is earlier than 01 December, 2008, and the ECM is engraved with the 10R4089 part number, remove the part from dealer parts stock.

NOTE: Verify the 10R4089 Reman part number is engraved on the ECM. Sometimes new, non remanufactured Electronic Control Modules are delivered in a Reman package if a Reman unit is not available at that time.

- If the date code is 01 December, 2008 or later, return the part to dealer parts stock.

- If the part number engraved on the ECM is a part number for the new control group and not the reman part number, return the ECM to dealer parts stock.

2. If box label is not available, inspect the serial number (XXXYL---CB) engraved on the ECM. The "XXXY" in the serial number represents the day of the year and the year. Ex. 0127 represents: day 12, 2007.

Refer to Image2 for details on how to read the component Serial Number date code.

- If the 4th digit in the ECM serial number is 7, or if the fourth digit is 8 and the first three digits are less than 335, remove the ECM from dealer parts stock. Example: XXX7, or 0018 - 3358 (day 1, 2007 - day 335, 2008), remove from dealer stock.

- If the fourth digit in the ECM serial number is 8 and the first three digits are 336 or higher, return the ECM to dealer parts stock.

NOTE: All parts that are inspected and returned to dealer parts stocked should be marked on the package to indicate that they have been inspected according to PI7#### / REBE5221.
