How to use GM MDI to do Calibration Update by SPS Programming

Purpose:
Perform GM SPS (Service Programming System) Programming J2534 mode for instrument panel controller (IPC) calibration updates using GM MDI scan tool (original or a good high quality clone).
This can be for the ECU or any programmable module in the vehicle, such as the EBCM, TCM, Radio, or IPC that you may want to reflash.


Model example: Chevrolet Cruze Passenger car 2012
(Applicable to model year 2011 and up, which is when the Tech2 ended and was fully replaced by the GM Multiple Diagnostic Interface, or MDI and MDI 2, and TIS2Web subscriptions.) 
What you need to program:
High Quality GM MDI clone with WiFi
A laptop
GM online subscription (or https://www.acdelcotds.com/subscriptions)

Turn ignition off
verify vehicle battery fully charged
Turn ignition on, engine off
Connect J2534 device to Data Link Connector
Connect J2534 device to PC
Switch J2534 mdi on and wait for MDI  to get ready
After programming erase all DTC of all ECUs
After communication is built, select vehicle model
