Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein are systems and methods for initiating over-the-air (OTA) programming (together, OTAP) of a transmission control module (TCM) of a vehicle. In an embodiment, a TCM determines that an OTAP update is available, and responsively presents an update-ready indication via an operator interface of the vehicle, and thereafter determines whether each precondition in a set of one or more preconditions is satisfied, including a precondition that a valid initiate-update instruction has been received via the operator interface. If the TCM determines that each precondition in the set is satisfied, the TCM then responsively initiates installation of the OTAP update. If, however, the TCM determines that at least one precondition in the set is not satisfied, the TCM then responsively does not initiate installation of the OTAP update.
