Powertrain Calibration Information
NOTE:
Powertrain calibration information is limited to a maximum of 5 characters per line on the VC label. Because of this, calibration identification consisting of more than 5 characters will wrap to the second line on the VC label.
Powertrain calibration information is printed in the lower right corner of the VC label. Only the base calibration information is printed. Revision levels will not appear, however, they can be obtained through a scan tool using the most current software revision.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Model year (year in which calibration strategy was first introduced) |
| 2 | Vehicle code |
| 3 | Transmission code |
| 4 | Unique calibrations (designates different hardware to similar vehicles) Example: tires or drive ratios |
| 5 | Fleet code (describes fleet to which the vehicle belongs) Example: 6 - Evaporative Emission (EVAP) |
| 6 | Certification region (lead region where multiple regions are included in one calibration) Example: A - US federal |
| 7 | Revision level (will advance as revisions occur) Not printed on label |
The following offers a more detailed explanation of the coding strategy used.
