IMPORTANT

• The Power Programmer for 1999-2005 4.3/4.8/5.3/6.0/8.1L GM trucks

and SUVs is legal

for California pollution-controlled motor vehicles

according

to the CARB Executive Order process. In the interest of

improved air quality, the California Air Resources Board (CARB)

requires new vehicle and manufacturers of aftermarket parts to develop

engine and emissions equipment that either reduce or maintain specific

air pollutants affected by vehicle use. Both the California Vehicle Code

(section 27156) and Federal Clean Air Act (administered by the

Environmental Protection Agency) prohibit modifications that increase

vehicle emissions. Aftermarket parts manufacturers, particularly in the

high-performance

segment, are required to obtain CARB approval in

the form of executive

Orders (E.O.s) for any product not qualifying as a

direct replacement for an original equipment part. Hypertech includes

meeting all E.O. requirements in its product development process.

This guarantees

that users of Hypertech “Power Tuning” products will

meet certification

requirements when registering, selling, or needing

to pass various emissions tests or Inspection and Maintenance

(I&M) programs administered by state or local enforcement

agencies. Make sure that any emissions-related product you buy and

install carries an E.O. number or is pending an E.O. Without this

verification you are at

risk, in potential violation of regulations

and may incur unnecessary

financial obligations during vehicle

inspections or emissions tests. A CARB E.O. sticker is supplied. Keep

this sticker in your vehicle or attach it inside the door jam as proof that

the Power Programmer is street legal.

• Your vehicle’s computer will not be programmed at the end of the

programming menus until you select “PRESS ‘Y’ TO

BEGIN

PROGRAMMING”, on page 18. Feel free to experiment

with the

programming choices without the fear of accidentally

programming

the wrong information into your vehicle’s computer.

You can make any

choice that you want and change it again and again, without program-

ming it into your vehicle’s computer, until you are absolutely ready.

• While the programmer is programming:

* DO NOT leave the vehicle while programming is in process.

* DO NOT program your vehicle without a fully charged battery.

If after you have programmed your vehicle’s computer with the

Hypertech Power Programmer and you decide to change the

tuning, It is recommended that you recharge your vehicle’s

battery. You may either drive the vehicle to charge the battery

or use a battery charger. But either way, MAKE sure that the

battery holds a full charge.

* DO NOT disturb the cable while programming.

* The ONLYtime you may remove the programmer cable from

the DLC safely is PRIOR to pressing ‘Y’ to program your

entries. However, any programming choices you have made

WILL NOT be saved. NOTE: It is NOT safe to unplug the

programmer cable any time AFTER you have pressed ‘Y’ to

program.

* DO NOT turn the key off UNLESS

instructed by the programmer.

* DO NOT start the engine.

Any of these actions will interrupt the programming process.

The programmer is designed to recover from these conditions,

but they should be avoided.

HYPERTECH POWER PROGRAMMER III

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS OVERVIEW

Congratulations! You are the owner of the Power Programmer III,

the latest in high-performance tuning technology. Now you can optimize

your engine’s tuning, as well as adjust other vehicle parameters

(see table of contents), all at the touch of a button.

Your vehicle has an onboard computer that controls the engine

and transmission. Inside your vehicle’s computer is a FLASH

memory chip which contains the vehicle’s programming. The

programmer actually reprograms this FLASH computer chip,

according to your specifications, with Hypertech’s Power Tuning.

This is the only way an individual can reprogram some 1994-1995

and all 1996 and newer vehicles sold in the United States.

To reprogram your vehicle’s computer, simply plug the

programmer cable into the vehicle’s diagnostic connector

located under the dash panel on the driver’s side. Set the parking

brake. Next, turn the ignition key to RUN but do not start the

engine. Press the ▲arrow on the programmer. It will then identify

your vehicle and display a series of options on its screen. When

completed, turn the key to OFF and disconnect the cable from the

diagnostic connector. Now you’re ready to Feel the Power!

Hypertech’s Power Tuning can be stored in only one (1)

vehicle at a time. The Power Programmer can be reconnected

to remove the Power Tuning and return the vehicle to the factory

programming at any time. After you have performed this step,

your vehicle will be in its stock configuration.

You may also reconnect your programmer at any time to change

the programming. For example, if you have replaced your factory

tires with different diameter tires, you will want to correct your

speedometer, odometer, and automatic transmission shift points.

Simply reconnect your programmer, answer the necessary option(s),

and reprogram your vehicle. You do not have to return to stock first.

SECTION 1: ONSTAR EQUIPPED VEHICLES

If your GM vehicle is equipped with the OnStar system, you

MUST temporarily disable the system BEFORE programming

your vehicle with the Power Programmer III. Please follow the

steps below to temporarily disable the OnStar system.

General Precautions

Many new vehicles are equipped with daytime running lights,

or sensors that turn the headlights on in dim situations automatically

when the ignition is on. For the purposes of programming the

vehicle this presents an unnecessary extra drain on the vehicle

battery. Many new vehicles have a procedure for turning off

the lights. Often this is accomplished by pressing the “Dome

Override” button two (2) to four (4) times in succession.

We recommend that your headlights be off when programming

your vehicle for added safety against corrupt programming due

to battery failure. See your owner’s manual for vehicle specific

information regarding your headlights.

Recommended Precautions

The OnStar system by GM periodically communicates with the

vehicle. This periodic communication with the vehicle has been

known to disrupt the programming process. In order to

prevent

disruption of the programming process, it is recommended

that

the OnStar system be disabled while programming the vehicle.

To temporarily disable your OnStar system in 4.8/5.3/6.0/8.1L

GM vehicles, remove the fuse(s) associated with OnStar. Please

refer to the fuse section of your owner’s manual for instructions

and locations of fuse(s).

The fuse panel will be under the hood of

the vehicle on the driver’s

side behind the battery. In most cases

there will be one (1) fuse in that fuse panel the OnStar system

relies on. See page 5 for an example. For 4.3L GM SUVs, follow

the steps on page 6 to temporarily disable the OnStar system.

When the OnStar system is successfully disabled, its indicator

light on the dash or rearview mirror will be OFF. Be sure that

this light is off when the key is in the ON position (engine not

running) BEFORE programming the vehicle. This will ensure

that there are no OnStar related problems.

Recovery From OnStar Related

SECTION 2: POWERSTAT INSTALLATION

For 1999-2003 4.8/5.3/6.0L GM vehicles

Tools needed:

10mm socket, ratchet, and extension

Slip joint pliers

DEX-COOL anti-freeze coolant

NOTE: The thermostat in this engine is a “housing” style

thermostat. It is located on the front of the water pump

assembly at the bottom edge of the passenger side

cylinder head. (See Figure C)

Part #1015 - 180° PowerStat (1999-2003 ONLY)

1. Make sure that the vehicle is parked on a level surface before

installing the Hypertech PowerStat.

2. Allow the vehicle coolant to cool.

3. Turn the surge tank cap counter-clockwise very slowly to

remove the pressure from the cooling system. If you hear a

hissing or spurting sound, stop and let the pressure bleed off.

When the hissing or spurting sound goes away, finish

removing the surge tank cap.

4. Open the radiator drain plug and drain the coolant from the

vehicle.

5. Remove the radiator hose from the stock thermostat.

6. Remove the two (2) 10mm bolts holding the stock thermostat

to the engine. (You may want to use an extension on the

socket wrench for easier access.)

7. Lift out the stock thermostat. Use a flathead screwdriver to

gently pry, if necessary. Clean all the sealing surfaces.

8. Install the Hypertech PowerStat, making sure the O Ring is

sealed properly. For ease of installation, you may want to

apply a small amount of grease to the PowerStat to help

retain the O Ring.

NOTE: After installing

the PowerStat, if any

coolant needs to be

added to the vehicle,

make sure you

put the same color

coolant back into the

vehicle. If your vehicle

has orange coolant,

replace with orange

coolant. If green,

replace with green.

To complete your performance package, you may choose to use

a low-temp thermostat. Replacing the factory thermostat with a

Hypertech PowerStat will allow the engine to run cooler, increasing

power, and reducing the engine’s tendency to detonate.

•For 4.3 & 8.1L vehicles, Hypertech recommends using

the stock

thermostat. For 1999-2003 4.8/5.3/6.0L vehicles,

Hypertech recommends

using the 180° PowerStat. The

PowerStat is NOT available for 2004-2005 GM trucks/SUVs.

• WARNING: Never attempt to change a

thermostat on a hot engine.

• Serious injury can occur if the radiator cap

is removed while the cooling system is hot.

• The engine should always be cold when

installing the Powerstat.

9. Reinstall the thermostat bolts and any hoses removed. Torque

the bolts to 7 ft.-lbs.

10. Close the radiator drain plug.

11. Fill the cooling system with the proper water/coolant

mixture. Refer to the owners manual for the correct ratio.

Pour the coolant into the surge tank.

12. Start the engine and let it idle for approximately one (1)

minute.

13. Reinstall the surge tank cap.14. Cycle the engine from idle to

3000 RPM in thirty (30) to forty (40) second intervals. This

needs to be done until the engine coolant temperature reaches

210°F or 99°C.

15. When the cooling system is at the proper temperature, shut

off the engine. Remove the surge tank cap as described in

Step 3.

16. Leaving the surge tank cap off, start the engine and let it idle

for one (1) minute. Then, fill the surge tank with the coolant

mixture to 1/2” above the “Fill Cold” mark on the surge tank.

Now reinstall the surge tank cap.

17. Repeat Step 14 once more, then shut off the engine.

18. Allow the vehicle coolant to cool, then remove the surge tank

cap again as described in Step 3. Top off the coolant system

to 1/2” above the “Fill Cold” mark on the surge tank, then

tighten the surge tank cap.
