SERVICE INFORMATION
By now, most dealers should have received their CF-U1 kit to assist with reprogramming vehicles coming in for the WVU-31 ECM Service Program Bulletin. Although the device has other capabilities built into it, they are not accessible. The sole function of the unit is to help free-up your SDS Notebook and SDI box providing an additional means to facilitate reprogramming for WVU-31. The Techline has received inquiries from Technicians about how to activate some of the CF-U1's other functions. Please do not try to use the tool for anything else other than for what it was intended.
