Be careful taking the PCM out of it's cradle ..they stick from age and will crack .Then you need a new cradle ...not good! Maybe spray some WD-40 around the perimeter ..Just my .02:D

Buckmaster, from what I have read, just disconnect the Battery and remove it very carefully. If you can wait until in the morning, I would call one of the tuners just to double check. I was thinking Nate at Extreme.

I believe there are 3 connectors..just wiggle them free slowly and mark them so you remember wher they go and slide out of cradle. The PCM is about 10 in x 7in and in a aluminum box...just take it slow you will be OK..:D

WD40 is a good idea just don't get any on the wire contacts that are all at the BOTTOM of the PCM. Use some white lube on the plastic bracket that hods the PCM before you put it back in.

Buckmaster, I had the same problem getting the PCM out. I ended up learning the hard way and cracked the cradle it sits in :mad . You live and learn :yesnod: .
