Introduction

This Special Instruction is used to set up communications with and flash both the 10R-4085 Engine Electronic Control Gp and 10R-1824 Engine Electronic Control Gp.

For this procedure utilize the FT3193 Wiring Harness, Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET), and a Caterpillar Communication Adapter. These tools are used to communicate with the 10R-4085 Engine Electronic Control Gp and the 10R-1824 Engine Electronic Control Gp. Follow the procedure outlined below.

   Note: Cat ET will not communicate with a blank Reman ADEM II-6 ECM unless Caterpillar Data Link (CDL) is connected. Also, Cat ET must be configured for CDL communication.

   Note: If the communication is not stopped, an "Engine: Not Supported" message will be shown. This message is normal since the ECM is loaded with basic software. Refer to Illustration 2.

5. Start the communication with Cat ET then stop the communication.

6. Select "Winflash" from the "Utilities" menu on Cat ET.

   Note: ECM will not flash unless American Trucking Association (ATA) is connected and Winflash is configured for ATA communication (1). Refer to Illustration 3.

7. Current software will show 0000000 (2). This reading is normal and does not mean the ECM has not been memory washed at the factory. Refer to Illustration 3.

8. Wait until the ECM has been linked.

9. Press the "Browse" button in order to select the name of the flash file that will be programmed into the ECM.

10. When the correct flash file is selected, press the "Open" button.

11. Verify that the "File Values" match the application. If the "File Values" do not match the application, obtain the correct flash file.

12. When the correct flash file is selected, press the "Begin Flash" button.

13. Cat ET will indicate when flash programming has been successfully completed.
