When you change from the US to the Canadian unit all you do is plug it in and it works. It is Plug and Play as they say. No dealer computer and hocus pocus required. How do I know? because I have done it and others including SparkieSRT6 have too. I plugged his unit in my US car, took it to the certification test, passed and gave it back to Sparkie. Easy Peasy.

Do not believe the dealership, they may or may not know and they just want your money.
I wasn't charged when they could not make it happen , but I was standing right beside the Tech when he went through the menu with StarScan tool.
When he 'enabled' it ,it came up with the message that I mentioned in my previous post.
Not arguing that it cant be done by just changing the module ,but just wondering what else may change with the code ?
The only thing I noticed after he did that was that when you turned the ignition off, and got out of the vehicle , was that the fog lights, tail lights, corner marker lights and parking lights would come on for about 30 secs and then turn off.
I don't know if it always did that since I only had the car for a day and didn't notice before, or if it was the result of the coding.
Can anybody tell me if it is normal to have those lights come on after you turn off ignition
and exit the car ?
