ON-VEHICLE SERVICE PROCEDURE
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)
NOTE:
To prevent possible electrostatic discharge
damage, follow these guidelines:

Do not touch the control module connector pins
or soldered components on the control module
circuit board.

Do not open the replacement part package until
the par is ready to be installed.

Before removing the part from the package,
ground the package to a known good ground on
the vehicle.

If the part has been handled while sliding across
the seat, or while sitting down from a standing
position, or while walking a distance, touch a
known good ground before installing the part.

NOTE:
To prevent internal ECM damage, the ignition must
be in the "OFF" position in order to disconnect o
r
reconnect power to the ECM (for example: battery
cable, ECM pigtail, ECM fuse, jumper cables, etc.).

NOTE:
When replacing the production ECM with a service
ECM, it is important to transfer the broadcast code
and production ECM number to the service ECM
label. This will allow positive identification of ECM
parts throughout the service life of the vehicle.

/are
necessary. In case "SPS procedure does not
succeed" or "engine does not run but No DTC afte
r
SPS", low vehicle battery voltage or disconnected
electrical connector (e.g. poor connection of data
link connector) are supposed. Perform the SPS
procedure once again by correct conditions. The
programming ECM will be recovered normally.

f
that measurement is 28mm (1.1in.) or less, the valve
need no adjustment. If the measurement is greater than
28mm (1.1in.), apply finger pressure and retract the
valve. The force required to retract the pintle on a ne
w
valve will not damage the valve, shaft, or pintle.

3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS 6E-373
Inspection
 Inspect the louvered end of the sensor for grease,
dirt, excessive carbon build up or othe
r
contamination.
 A special anti-seize compound is used on the O2
sensor threads. This compound consists of glass
breads suspended in a liquid graphite solution.
The graphite burns away with engine heat, but the
glass breads will remain, marking the senso
r
easier to remove.
 New or service sensors will already have the
compound applied to the threads. If a sensor is
removed and is to be reinstalled for any reason,
the threads must have anti-seize compound
applied.


Installation Procedure
1. Install the O2 sensor to the exhaust pipe.
Apply anti-seize compound or the equivalent to the
threads of the oxygen sensor, if necessary.
2. Tighten the O2 sensor with specified tightening
torque.

6E-374 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF
Caution:
To reduce the risk of the fire and personal injury, it
is necessary to relive the fuel system pressure
before servicing the fuel system components.
Caution:
After relieving the fuel system pressure, a small
amount of fuel may be released when servicing fuel
lines or connections. Reduce the chance o
f
personal injury by covering the fuel line fitting with
a short towel before disconnecting the fittings. The
towel will absorb any fuel that may leak out. When
the disconnect is completed, place the towel in an
approved container.

1. Remove the fuel filler cap.
2. Remove the fuel pump relay.
3. Start the engine and allow it to stall.
4. Crank the engine for about 30 seconds.
5. Disconnect the negative battery cable.



FUEL RAIL ASSEMBLY

Removal Procedure
NOTE:
 Do not attempt to remove the fuel inlet fitting on
the fuel rail. It is staked in place. Removing the
fuel inlet fitting will result in damage to the fuel
rail or the internal O-ring seal.
 Use care when removing the fuel rail assembly in
order to prevent damage to the injector electrical
connector terminals and the injector spray tips.
 Fittings should be capped and holes plugged
during servicing to prevent dirt and othe
r
contaminants from entering open lines and
passages.
Important: Before removal, the fuel rail assembly may
be cleaned with a spray type engine cleaner. Follow the
spray package instructions. Do not immerse the fuel
rails in liquid cleaning solvent.
1. Depressurize the fuel system. Refer to Fuel
Pressure Relief Procedure in this Section.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Remove the engine cover.
4. Disconnect the accelerator pedal cable from throttle
body and cable bracket.

5. Disconnect the connectors from, solenoid valve,
sensing valve.
6. Disconnect the vacuum hose on canister solenoid
and positive crankcase ventilation hose.
7. Remove the common chamber Refer to the
common chamber in Engine Mechanical.
1. Lift up carefully on the fuel injectors. Do no
t
separate the fuel injectors from the fuel rail.
2. If an injector becomes separated from the fuel
rail, the infector O-ring seals and the retaine
r
clip must be replaced.
3. Drain residual fuel into an approved container.
