HOW-TO: Removing Your PCM

Recommended Posts

Nice post!

 

OK, I bought my truck used from a dealer, so no real info from any prior owner on what's in it (except for the obvious Gibson exhaust). Any way to tell if the PCM has been modded already? I'd hate to send it in to find it functioned the same.  :dunno:

Unfortunately not without interrogating it with tuning software.

No you remove the PCM when you either recieve a new one with a custom tune to install or when you want to ship off your PCM to get a tune and then re-install it.
