ECM AND MPEM
General
Prior to replacing a suspected ECM or MPEM, en-
sure that all the recommendations in the general
introduction of this section have been followed.
IMPORTANT:
When the ECM is replaced, the
Closed Throttle and Idle Actuator
must be re-
set. Refer to its specific section for adjustment.
To allow transferring the previous recorded infor-
mation from the old ECM or MPEM to the new
one, use the vehicle communication kit (VCK)

must be read inside B.U.D.S. prior to removing it
from the vehicle to carry vehicle information and
history to the new ECM or MPEM. Otherwise, per-

ECM Replacement
CAUTION:
Never try to use a 4-TEC Super-
charged ECM on a naturally-aspirated engine.
Doing so will automatically lead to a misfunc-
tion of the Engine Management System (EMS)
and will cause irregular combustion which
will damage the engine. Always make sure to
replace the ECM by an appropriate unit.
Disconnect battery cables.
WARNING
Battery BLACK negative cable must always be
disconnected first and connected last.
