How to Remove the ECM for Testing

NOTE:
- Make sure you have the anti theft code for the radio, then write down the frequencies for the radio's preset buttons before you disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
- Enter the anti theft code, then enter the customer's radio station presets, and set the clock after you reconnect the negative cable to the battery.

If the inspection for a trouble code requires voltage or resistance checks at the ECM connectors, remove the ECM and test it:

1. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.




2. Remove the left side kick panel (A) to expose the ECM (B).
3. Remove the two bolts from the ECM (B).
4. Disconnect the ECM connectors.
5. Install the ECM in the reverse order of removal.
6. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.
