How to put install a new PCM Alright I have the biggest noob questions. First off where is the pcm? I'm almost positive its just in the back left part of the engine bay, but I don't want to just pretend like I know what I'm talking about so I though I would ask. Also what do you do to take it out and put it back in? Is their a write up on it or could somebody explain this? Thanks.

Undo the bolt in the middle of each of the 2 connectors,
remove the connectors, lay the connectors/subharnesses aside (to the other side of the gas strut),
remove the 2 bolts you see on the plastic PCM holder,
pull out the PCM and holder, you may have to turn it and wiggle it to get it out.
Install is reverse.
Be careful to not overtighten the 2 connector bolts or they will strip out the threads out of the PCM.
