Archon,

Do you know how accesible it is to remove and replace?

Thanks!

By the instructions, it doesn't appear that it would be that hard....

REMOVAL PROCEDURE

1. Before replacement, record the personalization settings to transfer to the new module (if they are available).
2. Remove the right sound insulator.
3. Remove the Dash Integration Module (DIM) from the bracket by releasing the tab behind the module.
4. Disconnect the electrical connectors (1).

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1. Connect the electrical connectors (1) to the DIM (2).
2. Install the DIM into the bracket.
3. Reprogram the DIM.
4. Install the right sound insulator.
However, looking at another area, you would need to have the DIM programmed with a Tech II.

I also need a new DIM

what does "REPROGRAM THE DIM" mean? what needs to be reprogramed and what will happen if its not done. I was confused about that when I read it.

I think it is "UK3 - Control Steering Wheel Accessory". Out of curiosity, are you replacing your DIM to add the steering wheel controls?

Ddalder, if that were the case, wouldn't he just be able to get his current one reprogrammed? Bonnyguy, the RPO codes are listed under techinfo.

Exactly. You've hit the nail on the head. It is a lot of extra work and expense if this is the only reason to replace the DIM. It should be a case of reprogramming once any missing wiring (if any) is added and the controls are installed.
