12. Disconnect the ECM/PCM connectors (B).  

13. Remove the ECM/PCM mounting bolt (C) and the bracket.  

14. Remove the nuts (D), then remove the ECM/PCM (E).  

15. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal.  

16. Open the SCS line with the HDS.  

17. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). 

18. Manually input the VIN to the ECM/PCM with the HDS.  

19. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software.  

20. Select the IMMOBI SYSTEM with the HDS.  

21. Enter the immobilizer code using the ECM/PCM replacement procedure in the HDS; it allows you to start 

the engine.  

22. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.  

23. If the TP POSITION CHECK failed in step 5, clean the throttle body (see THROTTLE BODY 

CLEANING ).  

24. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ). 

NOTE:

DTC P0630 "VIN Not Programmed or Mismatch" may be stored because 
the VIN has not been programmed into the ECM/PCM; ignore it, and 
continue this procedure.

OBD STATUS 

The OBD status shows the current system status of each DTC and all of the parameters. This function is used to 
see if the repair was successfully completed. The results of diagnostic tests for the DTC are displayed as: 



PASSED: The on board diagnosis is successfully finished.  



FAILED: The on board diagnosis has finished but failed.  



EXECUTING: The vehicle is in enable criteria conditions for the DTC and the on board diagnosis is 
running.  



NOT COMPLETED: The on board diagnosis was running but is out of the enable conditions of the DTC. 



OUT OF CONDITION: The vehicle has stayed out of the enable conditions for the DTC.
