| CAUTION | If ECM replacement is instructed in following testing, always ensure ECM connectors and ground circuit are okay. If either are suspect, repair and repeat testing to confirm ECM malfunction. If ECM is replaced, ECM must be programmed with proper ignition key code for engine immobilizer system (if equipped). For programming procedures, see COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in GENERAL INFORMATION. |
