WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Before installing PCM, ensure there is no debris in air filter/PCM housing assembly or in MAF/IAT sensor inlet screen, which may distort air flow. Ensure there are no signs of damage to air filter/PCM housing assembly, or to intake air duct. If a problem is found, replace component as necessary.
NOTE:
If PCM is being programmed using Off-Board method, perform programming before continuing with PCM installation.
- Install PCM. Install PCM connectors. Tighten PCM connector screws to 71 INCH Lbs. (8 N.m). Install intake air duct, MAF/IAT sensor, and air filter housing cover to throttle body.
- Ensure intake air duct is installed properly on throttle body. An improperly installed or distorted damaged air filter, or intake air duct may cause a DTC to set. Align and engage tabs on air filter housing cover with slots in air filter/PCM housing.
- Tighten air filter housing cover screws to 35 INCH Lbs. (4 N.m). Tighten intake air duct clamp at throttle body. Reconnect MAF/IAT sensor connector. Connect negative battery cable. Install rear seat cushion.
