Removal Procedure
Notice: Turn 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.) in order to prevent internal PCM damage.
- Record the Transaxle Fluid and Engine Oil Life Indexes.
- Turn OFF the ignition.
- Disconnect the battery negative cable. Refer to
Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection
in Engine Electrical.
- Remove the screw retaining the intake air
duct/resonator (3) to the powertrain control module (PCM) housing.
- Unsnap the air filter housing clamps on
top of the air cleaner housing assembly.
- Pull the intake air duct/resonator assembly (2) up enough to remove
the air cleaner cover (3) and the PCM.
- Slide the air cleaner element assembly toward the fender to separate the
air cleaner element assembly from the air inlet assembly.
- Loosen the PCM connector attaching bolts.
- Disconnect both PCM connectors.
- Remove the PCM (1).
Installation Procedure
Important: If the PCM is being programmed using the
Off-Board method, perform the programming before continuing with the steps listed
below. Refer to the Off-Board procedure in
Service Programming System (SPS)
in Programming.
- Install the PCM (1).
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.
- Install the PCM connectors.
Tighten
Tighten the PCM connectors screws to 8 N·m
(71 lb in).
- Install the air cleaner cover (3)
onto the air inlet housing.
- Snap the assembly clamps into place.
- Align the intake air duct/resonator assembly (3)
into place.
- Install the screw onto the intake air duct/resonator assembly.
Tighten
Tighten the intake air duct clamp to 3 N·m
(27 lb in).
- Connect the battery negative cable. Refer to
Battery Negative Cable Disconnection and Connection
in Engine Electrical.
- Program the PCM. Refer to
Service Programming System (SPS)
in Programming.
