Manual: A manual determination must be performed if:
- the control module cannot communicate with the MoDiC.
- the software does not recognize the DME identification data, or
- the MoDiC cannot find a replacement number stored in memory during an automatic determination. The MoDiC displayed the message "No Substitute found".

Manual determination is carried out by entering:

- the part number of the basic programmable control module
- the VIN of the vehicle
- the part number of the factory programmed control module.

These numbers are found on the label of the installed control module.

The MoDiC will display the part numbers for the replacement part. Order the component using the MoDiC supplied part number (only use number in right column) and proceed with the reprogramming procedure covered further on.

If the MoDiC displays "No Programming data available for this SG version. Current data medium?", or "Incorrect part number for programmed control unit?" Double check the control module label for an incorrect VIN. This control module could have been incorrectly programmed in a previous programming campaign or control module replacement.

If after both the automatic and manual determinations have been performed and the message "No Substitute found" is still displayed the following are the cause:
- A part number supersession has occurred since the programming software was issued (thoroughly review the Service Information bulletin for alternative part numbers to be entered), or the currently installed control module was incorrectly programmed in a previous programming procedure.
