MICRO TUNER VEHICLE PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT! To ensure trouble-free programming of your vehicle's computer:
• Make sure the vehicle's battery is sufficiently charged.
• Turn off all accessories and close doors to prevent unnecessary drain on the battery.
• Do not attempt to program your vehicle while a battery charger is connected.
• Improper battery voltage will result in failure of the programming process.
• Do not disconnect the cable or turn off the ignition during programming.
A. Reconnect the battery.
B. Connect the supplied cable to the 9-pin con-
nector at the top of the hand-held unit. If
present use the thumbscrews to secure the
cable to the connector.
C. Connect the other end to your ALDL connec-
tor located under the dash near the steering
column. Make sure this connection is seated
all the way in and that it is secure. You do not
want this cable coming out of the connector
during programming.
D. Turn the ignition key to the "on" or "run" posi-
tion but do not start the vehicle.
E. To begin programming your vehicle, you may
either press the “YES” button or the “A” but-
ton. If you press the “YES” button on the
hand-held unit, this will download the
Superchips performance program already
stored in the hand-held unit. If you press “A”,
you can alter some predefined options to suit
your needs. These options are not perma-
nently stored in the hand-held unit. When
power is removed from the unit, the changes
you made will be lost.
F. You only need to press the “YES” button
once to start the programming cycle. The pro-
gramming process takes 1 minute and 15
seconds to complete.
NOTE: Do not disturb the cable, or turn the ignition off during
this time. If the programming is disrupted, the comput-
er will not start or run your vehicle.
NOTE: For vehicles equipped with on-star, follow the instruc-
tions on the following page before starting.
G. The hand-held unit will inform you that the
programming process has completed and to
turn the ignition off and disconnect the cable.
Only at this time should the ignition be turned
off and the cable removed.
H. Programming is now completed. Start the
vehicle to ensure proper operation.
