Direct Configuration Data (formerly known as VID block)

The direct configuration data commonly stores configuration items such as tire size, axle ratio, and whether or not the vehicle is equipped with cruise control.

Configuration data is a VIN -specific module configuration record. During vehicle build, the configuration from all modules is downloaded and stored in the configuration database. Configuration data does not reflect customer preference items that have been changed from the default state. These items need to be changed using programmable parameters after the module is configured.

It is not necessary to obtain configuration data unless directed to do so by the diagnostic scan tool. This data may be accessed from the PTS web site.
