J2534 Knowledge Base

It 
It is strongly advised that J2534 users review all associated documentation BEFORE using the
J2534 Application. ECU reprogramming support requires an understanding of vehicle
diagnostics, ECU communications and vehicle electrical architecture. A misunderstanding of
what is required to perform ECU reprogramming on Chrysler supported vehicles can lead to a
frustrating and unsuccessful experience.

number.

  Review the J2534 Flash Availability document for the vehicle YME (Year, Model and
Engine) and the ECU

If you see this notification above, review the J2534 Flash Availability document located on the
TechAuthority website under Related Documents and Links and information referenced in
Section 3.0 of this document. 

Troubleshooting Tip:

Problems can occur when an ECU module is replaced with the wrong ECU module. Selecting
the wrong calibration file can lead to poor vehicle performance, engine damage or a vehicle that
will not start. Obtaining the original ECU part number and following supercedence rules is
extremely important when replacing an ECU. Once an ECU has been reprogrammed, the new
calibration cannot be removed. Previously used ECU modules are not supported with the
