Behind the DIC there are two little black boxes, it the PKE box the larger one on the bottom or the smaller one on top.

The PKE Module is the larger module and has two electrical connectors on the right hand side of it. The Tone Generator sits on top of the PKE Module. It has one electrical connector.

Default How did you get to the module?

I need to replace mine and the Heim service manual makes it look like you have to take the whole dash apart. I'll replace my cassette unit with a cd/cassette radio at the same time. Help??!!

You are supose to, but that doesn't mean you have to. If you trim that bar out from behind the DIC with a dremel I think you can get the box out without taking the whole dash off.

I guess you mean that I can get to it your way by removing the face of the dash rather the top dash pad?
I have to go that way to replace the radio.
