Abstract

Methods, devices, and systems for programming vehicle modules are provided. An exemplary vehicle includes a first module, a gateway module communicatively coupled to the first module, and an update module communicatively coupled to the gateway module. The update module is configured to provide authorization information and programming data to the gateway module. The gateway module is configured to verify that programming of the first module is authorized based at least in part on the authorization information and to provide programming data to the first module after verifying programming of the first module.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] The subject matter described herein is related to that described in US Patent Application Serial No. 14 / 064,425 (Attorney Docket No. P024878-GMVE-CD (003.1077)), filed concurrently herein. technical field [0003] Embodiments of the subject matter described herein relate generally to vehicle systems, and more particularly to systems and methods for securely programming modules within a vehicle using programming information from a remote device.
