Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Replacement

Service of the PCM should normally consist of either replacement of the PCM or EEPROM programming. If the diagnostic procedures call for PCM Replacement, check the PCM first to see if it is the correct pan. If the PCM is malfunctioning, remove it and install the new service PCM.

The new service PCM will not be programmed. You must program the new PCM. DTC PO6O2 indicates the EEPROM is not programmed or has malfunctioned.

NOTICE: In order to prevent possible electrostatic discharge damage to the PCM, do not touch the connector pins or soldered components on the circuit board.

IMPORTANT: When replacing the production PCM with a service PCM (controller), it is important to transfer the broadcast code and production PCM number to the service PCM label. Do not record on PCM cover. This will allow positive identification of PCM pans throughout the service life of the vehicle.

NOTICE: In order to prevent internal PCM damage, leave the ignition OFF when installing or removing the PCM connectors and disconnecting or reconnecting the power to the PCM (battery cable, PCM pigtail, PCM fuse, jumper cables, etc.).






REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Remove 2 screws from the air cleaner top cover.
3. Remove the air cleaner top cover.






4. Remove the PCM from the air cleaner.
5. Disconnect the harness connectors from the PCM.
6. Remove the PCM from the engine compartment.
7. If the PCM is being replaced, remove the KS module for installation in the new PCM. Go to Knock Sensor Module.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. If a new PCM is being installed, install the KS module from the original PCM. Go to Knock Sensor Module.
2. Connect the harness connectors to the PCM.
3. Install the PCM into the air cleaner.






4. Install the air cleaner top cover and 2 screws. Tighten
- Tighten the air cleaner top cover retaining screws to 3-5 Nm (27-45 lb in).

5. Connect the negative battery cable.
6. If a new PCM is being installed, program the EEPROM.
