INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION - 1.6L
The PCM engine control strategy prevents reduced
idle speeds until after the engine operates for 320 km
(200 miles). If the PCM is replaced after 320 km (200
miles) of usage, update the mileage and vehicle iden-
tification number (VIN) in the new PCM. Use the
DRBIII scan tool to change the millage and VIN in
the PCM. If this step is not done a Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC) may be set. Refer to the appropriate
Powertrain Diagnostic Manual and the DRBIII scan
tool.
The PCM attaches to a bracket which attaches to
the dash panel welded bracket (Fig. 9).
