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.
Transit Mode
The transit mode feature is to minimize battery usage when the vehicle is being stored or transported prior to sale. When the CCU is programmed in the transit mode, the following functions are disabled:
- RF Receiver
- Tail Door Actuator
- Tail Door Window
- Central Door Locking (CDL)
- Interior Lamps
If the ignition is switched to position II, the CCU buzzer will sound an alarm to warn that the vehicle is in transit mode. The dealer can remove the transit mode feature and program the CCU to the applicable market specification at the Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI) using T4.
