### Purpose

The purpose of this bulletin is to clarify the proper use of the labor codes used to reprogram vehicle control modules. Saturn Corporation® uses labor codes in the warranty system to help identify warranty trends in order to continue making improvements to the vehicles we build and sell. It is important that the Saturn Retail Facility uses the correct labor code to ensure this process continues successfully. The following labor codes should be used when reprogramming a vehicle controller:

Labor Operation | Labor Operation Description | Purpose | Vehicle Line
--- | --- | --- | ---
D4707 | Module or Assembly, HVAC Control Head - Reprogram | To reprogram auto climate control (HVAC) head on vehicles equipped with C68 Auto Air Conditioning. | L-Series
J6354* | EE PROM - Reprogramming (Install New PCM Calibration) | To reprogram engine control module (ECM) or powertrain control module (PCM). | S-Series, L-Series, VUE, ION

R4491 | Transmitter, Remote Control Door/Rear Compartment Lock - Reprogramming | To reprogram the remote keyless entry fob. | S-Series, L-Series, VUE, ION

*NOTE: Effective 09/15/03, J6355 will be deleted from the Electronic Labor Time System. After this date, J6354 must be used for reprogramming PCM/ECM.
