ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
4. Disconnect the red, white, and blue electrical
connectors at the PCM.
5. Remove the two screws in the front of the PCM.
6. Remove the one screw at the left rear of the PCM.
7. Pull the PCM straight out from the dashboard.
TS23757
Installation Procedure
1. Insert the PCM into the dashboard.
Line up the holes in front for the mounting screws.
2. Install the PCM with two screws in the front and one
screw at the left rear.
3. Plug the red, white, and blue connectors into the
appropriate sockets.

EEPROM
General Description
The Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only
Memory (EEPROM) is a permanent memory that is
physically soldered within the PCM. The EEPROM
contains program and calibration information that the
PCM needs to control powertrain operation.
EEPROM Programming
1. Step-up – Ensure that the following conditions have
been met:
The battery is fully charged.
The ignition is “ON.”
The Vehicle Interface Module cable connection at
the DLC is secure.
2. Program the PCM using the latest software matching
the vehicle. Refer to up-to-date Techline equipment
user’s instructions.
3. If the PCM fails to program, Refer to
UBS 98 model
year Immobilizer Workshop Manual.
Functional Check
1. Perform the On-Board Diagnostic System Check.
2. Start the engine and run for one minute.
3. Scan for DTCs using the Tech 2.
Power Steering Pressure (PSP)
Switch
General Description
The Power Steering Pressure (PSP) switch closes when
the hydraulic pressure reaches 3920
690 kPa (570
100 psi). This causes the PCM to actuate the idle air
control valve in order to prevent the additional load from
slowing down the engine. The switch opens when the
hydraulic pressure drops to 2970
560 kPa (430 80
psi).
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the PSP switch pigtail from the wiring
harness.
The pigtail is permanently attached to the switch.
Do not attempt to remove the wires from the
sensor.
Have a container ready to catch the power steering
fluid that leaks out of the line when the switch is
removed.

2. Remove the PSP switch from the power steering line.
Plug the line to prevent excessive loss of fluid and
possible contamination of the power steering
system.
TS23760
Installation Procedure
1. Install the PSP switch in the power steering line.
TS23760
2. Connect the PSP switch pigtail to the wiring harness.
3. Check the power steering fluid level. Refer to
Power
Steering
.
4. Start the engine. Watch the PSP switch for signs of
fluid leakage.
Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
Removal Procedure
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
2. Disconnect the TPS electrical connector.3. Remove the bolts and the TP sensor from the throttle
body.
TS23747
NOTE: Do not clean the TP sensor by soaking it in
solvent. The sensor will be damaged as a result.
Function Check
Use a Tech 2 to check the TP sensor output voltage at
closed throttle.
The voltage should be under 0.85 volt.
If the reading is greater than 0.85 volt, check the
throttle shaft to see if it is binding. Check that the
throttle cable is properly adjusted, also. Refer to
Throttle Cable Adjustment.
If the throttle shaft is not binding and the throttle cable
is properly adjusted, install a new TP sensor.
Installation Procedure
1. Install the TP sensor on the throttle body with the
bolts.
