Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Additional ZCS Coding Functions: Retrofit
The retrofit function allows options or accessory equipment to be added after the vehicle is manufactured.
By selecting to install a new option/accessory from the list of available retrofits for the specific vehicle, the ZCS information will be updated to reflect the addition of the new option or accessory that was installed. Updating of the ZCS information will ensure that the new component is recognized and able to communicate with the other modules in the vehicle.
