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.
Configuration (Electronic Ignition Switch Control Unit): Description
Vehicle specification needs to be written with CONSULT because it is not written after replacing the electronic ignition switch control unit.
The configuration requires network connection. CONSULT connects to network and then it downloads the configuration data from the server. Then CONSULT writes the vehicle specification to the electronic ignition switch control unit.
Refer to Work Procedure .
The configuration no need to "save" configuration data from the electronic ignition switch control unit. The configuration data is always generated freshly at the server and then downloaded to the CONSULT.
