Caution: Refer to Brake Fluid Irritant Caution in the Preface section.

Notice: Refer to Brake Fluid Effects on Paint and Electrical Components Notice in the Preface section.

Notice: To prevent equipment damage, never connect or disconnect the wiring harness connection from the EBCM with the ignition switch in the ON position.

1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
2. Remove the fuel injector sight shield (3.8 L engine only). Refer to Fuel Injector Sight Shield Replacement in Engine Mechanical-3.8 L.

Important: Do not pry apart using a tool. Be careful not to damage BPMV surface.

Important: Care must be taken not to damage the solenoid valves when the EBCM is removed from the BPMV.

12. Separate the EBCM from the BPMV by gently pulling apart until separated.

1. Install the EBCM to the BPMV.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Install the four retainers that attach the EBCM to BPMV.

Tighten
Tighten the retainers to 5 N·m (44 lb in).
