1 RF-HUB Replace Enable KEYs/FOBIKs (Only the new FOBIK needs to be present, previously stored FOBIKs will remain enabled.) BCM replacement Flash the ECM/PCM if the Spare Part is supplied without software Transfer secret key to ESL / ECM RF-HUB Replace BCM replacement (first phase, at a certain point will be asked to configure the RFH, at that point run the RFH replacement, after the RFH replacement and the Disable Fobiks procedures run again the BCM replacement procedure in order to complete the BCM configuration)
2 Disable KEYs/FOBIKs (Only if the procedure did not run automatically after the RFH replacement procedure. All FOBIKs should be present, but the FOBIKs not present at this time will be temporarily disabled. It will be possible to re-enable them by running the Enable KEYs/FOBIKs procedure.) BCM Replaced (in Vehicle Prep) Run BCM ECU Reset (Found under the Diagnostic Procedures Tab of the Vehicle View screen) Control unit replacement (If available will be found in the ECM ECU.) PROXI alignment procedure Disable KEYs/FOBIKs ONLY using the already stored FOBIKs (Only if the procedure do not run automatically after the RFH replacement procedure. The FOBIKs not present at this time will be temporarily disabled but will be possible to re-enable them running the Enable KEYs/FOBIKs procedure) RFH replacement
3 RFH_TPM Update FF_FR Axle Nom Tire Press Val (only if the vehicle is equipped with TPM sensors, or if the current pressure value set by the RFH replacement routine is different from the expected due to aftermarket tire size on the vehicle.)     Transfer secret key to ESL / ECM (only if the Control unit replacement procedure was not available in previous step.) RF-HUB Replace Enable KEYs/FOBIKs ONLY using the new FOBIK(s) and eventually FOBIKs not presented during the Disable KEYs/FOBIKs procedure (Only the new or previously disabled FOBIK needs to be present, previously stored FOBIKs will remain enabled.) Disable KEYs/FOBIKs (Only if the procedure do not run automatically after the RFH replacement procedure. The FOBIKs not present at this time will be temporarily disabled but will be possible to re-enable them running the Enable KEYs/FOBIKs procedure)
4 Program Left Front Tire Sensor ID, Program Left Rear Tire Sensor ID, Program Right Front Tire Sensor ID, and Program Right Rear Tire Sensor ID     PROXI alignment procedure (only if the Control unit replacement procedure was not available in previous step.) Update Front and Rear Axle Nominal Tire Pressure Values   BCM replacement (second phase, in order to complete the BCM configuration)
