Fiat Shift Alert
Some 2013 Fiat 500 models may not display the gear shift selector “GSI Shift Up” in the EVIC display. The fix involves updating the software in the instrument cluster, using software level 14.02 or higher.
Using a scan tool (wiTECH) with the appropriate diagnostic procedures available in TechCONNECT, verify that no DTCs are set. If any codes are present, record and repair as needed before reflashing.
Install a battery charger to ensure that battery voltage does not drop below 13.2 volts or rise above 13.5 volts.
Using the wiTECH diagnostic application for flashing the module. For instructions, select the “HELP” tab on the wiTECH window, then “HELP CONTENTS.” This will open the Welcome to wiTECH Help screen where topics can be selected.
Clear any DTCs that may have set in other modules.
