sending a PCM
hey, I need to send my pcm to vette doctors to get it looked at.
How would I send it? is it just like sending a file or would I actually have to take something off the car and wont be able to drive it?I just recentyl got the vette so I'm very noobish when it comes to all this.
Thanks in advance for any help!!

The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is a computer, you need to take it out of the car and ship it. You cant drive it when then PCM is not in the car.

Disconnect the battery.
jack up Car and remove passenger front wheel
Remove rear and under frame splash guards.
Using a 7mm socket undo terminal pins and bracket holder.
Wrap it in a lot of bubble wrap and plastic.
