PROCEDURE

1. Locate the FCM serial number on the FCM part number label (on outside of the FCM module).

The 6th, 7th, and 8th digits in the serial number identify the day of the calendar year (Julian date) that the FCM was manufactured.

The 9th digit identifies the year that the FCM was manufactured.

Determine the date that the FCM was manufactured, based on the FCM serial number.

a. If the FCM was manufactured before October 3, 2005, continue with Step 2.

b. If the FCM was manufactured on or after October 3, 2005, STOP. Do not continue with this bulletin procedure. Refer to Group 13C in the Raider service manual for FCM diagnosis.

2. Verify that the vehicle battery is properly charged and that there are no electrical harness disconnects. Correct as necessary.

3. Turn the ignition key to START and confirm whether the engine cranks.

4. Connect the MUT-III scan tool to the vehicle.

5. Turn the ignition key to “UNLOCK”. In the Raider menu, click on “Front Control Module (FCM).”
