How to Remove the PCM for Testing

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

1. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.




2. Pull back the carpet and remove the passenger's and driver's side center lower console covers (A and B) to expose the PCM (C).
3. Remove the PCM cover (D) from the passenger's side under-dash to access the PCM mounting nut (E).
4. Remove the PCM mounting bolt (F) and remove the PCM.
5. Reconnect the negative cable to the battery.
