I'm getting ready to back up my existing modules so I can make a few changes.

Do I need to be concerned about draining my battery if I try to backup everything at once?

Thanks!

I'll do it sporadically in between drives in that case.

You can let the engine idle or use a battery charger..

I am looking for the values at lines 776-01-01; 776-02-01; and 776-03-01 in the SCME as well as lines 7A7-01-03 and 7A7-01-01 in the FCIM.

Thanks in advance!

Keep in mind that from 2017 to 2018 those seats were revised with different hardware / modules so only compare same model years.

Thanks, I noticed that last night when I pulled it up on Forscan I believe I have some information from a 2016 and a 2018/9 and I could see some definite differences. I am going to be looking more closely at the set of data from a 2016. If anyone out there has this data from a 2017 they'd be willing to share I would be greatful for that too. Thanks everyone!
