|
| 5. |
Disconnect the battery positive (+) terminal (A).
|
| 6. |
Remove the reservoir mounting bolt (A) and coolant outlet pipe mounting bolt (B).

[In the case of installing used ECM]
[In the case of installing new ECM]
Turn the ignition ON and OFF position after completing "ECM neutral mode".
Then the ECM key register process is completed automatically.
|
ECM is combined with TCM. Therfore perform the necessary procedures after replacing or reinstalling a ECM.
(Refer to Automatic Transaxle Control System - "Adjustment")
|
| 1. |
Install in the reverse order of removal.
|
| ECM Problem Inspection Procedure |
| 1. |
TEST ECM GROUND CIRCUIT: Measure resistance between ECM and
chassis ground using the backside of ECM harness connector as ECM side
check point. If the problem is found, repair it.
|
| 2. |
TEST ECM CONNECTOR: Disconnect the ECM connector and visually
check the ground terminals on ECM side and harness side for bent pins
or poor contact pressure. If the problem is found, repair it. |
| 3. |
If problem is not found in Step 1 and 2, the ECM could be
faulty. If so, make sure there were no DTC''s before swapping the ECM
with a new one, and then check the vehicle again. If DTC''s were found,
examine this first before swapping ECM. |
| 4. |
RE-TEST THE ORIGINAL ECM: Install the original ECM (may be
broken) into a known-good vehicle and check the vehicle. If the problem
occurs again, replace the original ECM with a new one. If problem does
not occur, this is intermittent problem (Refer to “Intermittent
Problem Inspection Procedure” in Basic Inspection Procedure).
