Check the fuel control Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S). When
monitored on the Tech 2, the HO2S should respond quickly to
different throttle positions. If it doesn't check for silicon or other
contaminates from fuel or use of improper sealant. The
sensors may have a white powdery coating. Silicon
contamination sends a rich exhaust signal which causes the
ECM to command and excessively lean air/fuel mixture.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE PROCEDURE
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)
NOTE:
To prevent possible electrostatic discharge
damage, follow these guidelines:

Do not touch the control module connector pins
or soldered components on the control module
circuit board.

Do not open the replacement part package until
the par is ready to be installed.

Before removing the part from the package,
ground the package to a known good ground on
the vehicle.

If the part has been handled while sliding across
the seat, or while sitting down from a standing
position, or while walking a distance, touch a
known good ground before installing the part.

NOTE:
To prevent internal ECM damage, the ignition must
be in the "OFF" position in order to disconnect o
r
reconnect power to the ECM (for example: battery
cable, ECM pigtail, ECM fuse, jumper cables, etc.).

NOTE:
When replacing the production ECM with a service
ECM, it is important to transfer the broadcast code
and production ECM number to the service ECM
label. This will allow positive identification of ECM
parts throughout the service life of the vehicle.

Location
On the common chamber.

Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the two connectors from the ECM.
3. Remove four bolts.
4. Remove the ECM from common chamber.






Installation Procedure
1. Put on the ECM on the common chamber.
2. Tighten the ECM by four bolts.
3. Connect the two connectors to the ECM.
4. Connect the negative battery cable.

NOTE:
The replacement ECM must be programmed.
Service Programming System (SPS) and
Immobilizer programming (if equipped) is
/are
necessary. In case "SPS procedure does not
succeed" or "engine does not run but No DTC afte
r
SPS", low vehicle battery voltage or disconnected
electrical connector (e.g. poor connection of data
link connector) are supposed. Perform the SPS
procedure once again by correct conditions. The
programming ECM will be recovered normally.
