Rock engaged end of EEPROM carrier up as far as possible. Engage opposite end of carrier and repeat process until EEPROM carrier is free of socket.
  3. Carefully install new EEPROM (mounted in carrier) into BCM socket while aligning small notch in carrier with small notch in socket. Press on EEPROM (carrier only) until EEPROM is firmly seated in socket. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
