Engine Control Module: Service and Repair
REMOVAL
CAUTION:
-
Certain ABS systems rely on having the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) broadcast the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) over the
bus network. To prevent problems of DTCs and other items related to the VIN broadcast, it is recommend that you disconnect the ABS
CAB (controller) temporarily when replacing the PCM. Once the PCM is replaced, write the VIN to the PCM using the DRB scan tool.
This is done from the engine main menu. Arrow over to the second page to " 1. Miscellaneous". Select " Check VIN " from the choices.
Make sure it has the correct VIN entered before continuing. When the VIN is complete, turn off the ignition key and reconnect the ABS
module connector. This will prevent the setting of DTCs and other items associated with the lack of a VIN detected when you turn the key
ON after replacing the PCM.
-
Use the DRB scan tool to reprogram the new PCM with the vehicles original identification number (VIN) and the vehicles original
mileage. If this step is not done, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may be set.
The PCM (1) is attached to the right-inner corner of the engine compartment. To avoid possible voltage spike damage to the PCM, ignition key must be
off, and negative battery cable must be disconnected before unplugging PCM connectors.
1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
2. Carefully unplug the four 38-way connectors (2) from PCM.
