Engine Control Module: Service and Repair
REMOVAL1. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
NOTE:
- Some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.
- After the ignition switch is turned OFF, the navigation system requires approximately 90 seconds to record various types of memory and settings. As a result, after turning the ignition switch OFF, wait 90 seconds or more before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. DISCONNECT CONNECTOR HOLDER BLOCK
a. Remove the 3 bolts and move the connector holder block so that the ECM can be removed in the next step.
3. REMOVE ECM
a. Raise the 2 levers while pushing the locks on the 2 levers.
NOTE: Make sure that the lock lever is raised 90 ° as shown in the illustration before disconnecting the connectors. Failure to do this may cause the connectors to break.
b. Disconnect the 2 connectors.
c. Remove the 4 bolts and ECM.
4. REMOVE ECM GASKET
a. Peel off the sponge part of the gasket.
