2021 Nissan Rogue Module Reprogram Campaign P2A07

Why This Matters

Nissan has launched a voluntary emission service campaign, identified as P2A07 and technical bulletin NTB22-057, for certain 2021 Nissan Rogue (T33) vehicles. This campaign addresses potential emission-related concerns by requiring a software update for three critical control modules: the Engine Control Module (ECM), Transmission Control Module (TCM), and Shift Control Module (SCM). The update is performed at no cost to the vehicle owner, ensuring the proper function of the Nissan Rogue module reprogram.

Important Warnings for Owners and Technicians

This campaign includes several critical advisories to prevent damage to vehicle components and ensure proper reprogramming:

• Battery Voltage: During reprogramming, the vehicle's battery voltage must be maintained between 12.0V and 15.5V. If the voltage drops below this range or rises above it, the SCM may be damaged. A battery maintainer or smart charger set to reflash mode is required.
• Electrical Loads: All vehicle electrical loads must be turned OFF before and during the reprogramming process. If any electrical load remains ON, the SCM may be damaged.
• External Devices: All external Bluetooth® devices (e.g., cell phones, printers) within range of the CONSULT PC and the Vehicle Interface (VI) must be turned OFF. Bluetooth® signal interference can interrupt the reprogramming process and potentially damage the SCM.
• Do Not Disconnect: If reprogramming does not complete successfully, technicians are warned not to disconnect the VI or shut down the CONSULT-III plus application. Instead, they should follow specific recovery procedures.
• DTCs for Learning Procedures: Before performing the FORWARD CLUTCH POINT LEARNING procedure, it is crucial that no Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are detected.

Affected Modules and Potential Faults

This campaign specifically targets the Engine Control Module (ECM), Transmission Control Module (TCM), and Shift Control Module (SCM). While the bulletin does not list specific symptoms an owner might experience, it indicates that the reprogramming is for emission service.

One potential diagnostic trouble code (DTC) that might be encountered and erased during this process is "U0101-00 Lost communication (TCM)", which indicates a communication issue with the Transmission Control Module. Addressing this is part of the Nissan Rogue module reprogram.

Repair Procedure Summary

The repair involves a multi-step reprogramming process using the Nissan CONSULT-III diagnostic tool. The general procedure for the Nissan Rogue module reprogram includes:

1. Pre-Reprogramming Setup: Technicians must connect the CONSULT PC to the internet, ensure ASIST software is updated, turn off all external Bluetooth® devices, and turn off all vehicle electrical loads. A battery maintainer must be connected to maintain voltage between 12.0V and 15.5V.
2. Vehicle Preparation: The vehicle needs to be driven for approximately 10 minutes to ensure the engine coolant temperature is between 158-212°F (70-100°C) and the transmission is warmed up, meeting Idle Air Volume Learning conditions.
3. ECM Reprogramming: The current ECM part number is confirmed. If it matches specific numbers (e.g., 23761-6RK0D series), the ECM is reprogrammed.
4. TCM Reprogramming: Similarly, the current TCM part number is checked. If it matches specific numbers (e.g., 31039-6RC5C series), the TCM is reprogrammed.
5. SCM Reprogramming: The current SCM part number is verified. If it matches the specified number (31038-6RA2A), the SCM is reprogrammed. This step includes additional precautions regarding battery voltage and electrical loads.
6. DTC Erase: After each module reprogramming, all Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are erased. A final "Erase All DTCs" procedure is performed at the end of the reprogramming sequence.
7. Learning Procedures: Several critical learning procedures must be performed, including:
   • Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning
   • Idle Air Volume Learning
   • Accelerator Closed Position Learning
   • FORWARD CLUTCH POINT LEARNING (requires specific conditions like engine coolant temperature, transmission fluid temperature, and no DTCs detected)
   • TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH POINT LEARNING
   • SELECT LEARNING

Required Tools or Parts

The primary tool required for this service campaign is the CONSULT-III plus diagnostic system. Additionally, a battery maintainer or smart charger capable of reflash mode is essential to maintain stable voltage during reprogramming.

The campaign targets specific part number ranges for the control modules:

• ECM Part Numbers: 23761-6RK0D, 23761-6RK1D, 23761-6RK2D, 23761-6RK3D, 23761-6RK0E, 23761-6RK1E, 23761-6RK2E, 23761-6RK3E
• TCM Part Numbers: 31039-6RC5C, 31039-6RC6B
• SCM Part Number: 31038-6RA2A

What Owners Should Do

If you own a 2021 Nissan Rogue, it is recommended to contact your authorized Nissan dealership to determine if your vehicle is included in this voluntary emission service campaign P2A07. This service, which involves reprogramming the ECM, TCM, and SCM, will be performed at no charge for parts or labor. The dealership can check your vehicle's eligibility using Service COMM or Dealer Business Systems (DBS) National Service History.
