ECM/Mem-Cal - 1986-91 Models With Mem-Cal: Repair
To repair this condition use the following procedure. This procedure supersedes any instructions regarding MEM-CAL installation dated prior to September, 1990.
- Inspect the MEM-CAL to determine if a cork spacer is glued to the top side of the MEM-CAL assembly. If so, remove it prior to installation.
- Align small notches with matching notches in the ECM MEM-CAL socket.
- VERY GENTLY press down on the ends of the MEM-CAL until the locking levers are rotated toward the sides of the MEM-CAL.NOTE: To avoid ECM damage, do not press on the ends of the MEM-CAL unit until the levers snap into place. DO NOT use any vertical force beyond the minimum required to engage the MEM-CAL into its socket.
- While continuing light pressure on the ends of the MEM-CAL, use your index fingers to press the locking levers inward until they are snapped into place. Listen for click.
- Install MEM-CAL cover and install ECM in vehicle.
NOTE:
If diagnostic procedures require replacement of ECM, ensure ECM and PROM part numbers are correct. Service ECM DOES NOT contain a PROM. Old PROM must be installed in service ECM. Part number verification is critical for proper vehicle operation.
