SUBJECT: SERVICE ACTION: PCM UPGRADE DTC P0304 CYLINDER MIS-FIRE
WITH 2.0L ENGINE AND A/T LOGIC (SA025)
KMA is conducting a Service Action in relation to some 2010 MY Forte Sedan and Koup
with 2.0L engines and automatic transaxles. Some vehicles may experience a MIL ON
with DTC P0304 stored in memory. In most cases the DTC is set only during a cold start
and normally the customer does not notice any engine stumble, roughness or performance
issues. This PCM upgrade will eliminate the DTC from setting in the PCM on vehicles
produced prior to November 2, 2009.
Global
Diagnostic
System
(GDS)
To correct this condition, the ECM and/or PCM should be reprogrammed using the GDS
download as described in this bulletin.

WITH 2.0L ENGINE AND A/T LOGIC (SA025)
* NOTICE
Global Diagnostic System (GDS) users should access the "Notice" function from the
GDS Main Screen for instructions regarding ECM upgrade events.
• * NOTICE
A fully charged battery is necessary before ECM upgrade can take place. DO NOT
connect a battery charger to the vehicle during ECM upgrade. Make sure the blower
motor is ‘OFF’ during ECM upgrade.
• All ECM upgrades must be done with the ignition key in the ‘ON’ position.
• Be careful not to disconnect any cables connected to the vehicle or GDS during the
ECM upgrade procedure.
• DO NOT start the engine during ECM upgrade.
• DO NOT turn the ignition key ‘OFF’ or interrupt the power supply during ECM upgrade.
• When the ECM upgrade is completed, turn the ignition key ‘OFF’ and wait 20
seconds before starting the engine.
• ONLY use approved ECM upgrade software designated for the correct model, year
and engine size. Failure to do so may create other driveability issues due to the use
of the incorrect ECM/PCM calibration.

* NOTICE
If attempting to perform the ECM upgrade with the power supply cable
disconnected from the GDS tool, be sure to check that the GDS tool is fully
charged before ECM upgrade. If the GDS tool is not fully charged, failure to
perform the ECM upgrade may occur. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that
the power supply connector be connected to the GDS tool.
