The TSB number is 08-040-04.

I was going to attach the whole TSB in file format, but I can get that to work.

CH2002 General Purpose Interface Bus Cable Assembly
CH6000A Scan Tool (DRBIII®)
CH7000A/7001A J1962 Cable with red DRBIII® connector
TechCONNECT Workstation
NOTE: An updated J1962 cable has been released. This cable has a red colored
connector at the DRBIII® connection. Use this cable whenever a flash is
being performed.
REPAIR PROCEDURE:
NOTE: Whenever a controller is programmed, the software in the DRBIII®; must be
programmed with the latest revision level available.
08-040-04 -2-
NOTE: If this flash process is interrupted/aborted, the flash should be restarted and
then follow the directions on the DRBIII®.
1. Before beginning the reprogramming procedure, remove any old flash reprogramming
files from the DRBIII® memory. To clear the memory from the MAIN MENU:
a. Simultaneously press the “MORE†and “YES†keys.
b. A screen will appear requesting a “COLD BOOTâ€.
c. Follow the on screen instructions by selecting the “F4†key.
d. When the DRBIII® reboots to the MAIN MENU, proceed to Step #2
2. Connect the DRBIII® to TechCONNECT. Open TechTOOLS and verify that the
"DRBIII® Status: Connected" message is in the upper right corner of the TechTOOLS
screen.
3. Enter the “Software part #†recorded during “Diagnosis†in the “Parts Criteria†area and
select “Show Updatesâ€. TechTOOLS will populate the available updates.
4. Select the calibration.
5. Select the “DRBIII†radio button which is next to the “Download/Update†button.
6. Select the “Download/Update†button.
7. Monitor the "Flash Download/Update Progress" window on the TechCONNECT and
follow the instructions on TechCONNECT. When the flash process is complete,
proceed to Step #8.
8. Disconnect the DRBIII® from TechCONNECT.
9. Open the hood, install a battery charger and verify that the charging rate provides
approximately 13.5 volts.
10. Connect the DRBIII® to the vehicle.
11. Turn the ignition to the “Run†position (engine not running).
12. Download the flash from the DRBIII® to the vehicle. Using the DRBIII® select:
a. “Vehicle Flashâ€
b. Follow the directions on the DRBIII® screen.
13. Verify that the problem cannot be repeated by cycling the ignition switch OFF/ON and
actuating both door lock switches a few times. If any door lock failure still persists then
further diagnosis is necessary. Verify the BCM “Software p/n†was updated to the new
software p/n using Diagnosis Step #2.
NOTE: Due to the BCM programming procedure, a DTC may be set in other modules
(TCM, PCM, MIC, SKIM, etc.) within the vehicle, if so equipped. Some DTC's
may cause the MIL to illuminate. Check all modules using “Module Scanâ€,
record the DTC's, and erase these DTC's prior to returning the vehicle to the
customer. Erase any DTC's in the PCM only after all other modules have had
their DTC's erased.
