Computerized Engine Controls: Notes
CAUTION:
Electronic components used in control systems are designed to carry very low voltages. As little as a 30-volt charge created by static electricity can cause a total or degrading failure in PCM or other electronic components containing integrated circuits. Before servicing PCM, technician must ground himself and work area to discharge static electricity.
CAUTION:
DO NOT remove part from packaging until ready to install. Ground any static-proof package before opening. DO NOT touch electrical terminals of components unless properly grounded. DO NOT lay electrical components on car seat, carpeting or dashboard. Use electrostatic protection mat and ground strap whenever possible.
NOTE:
Vehicles are equipped with an electronically-controlled transmission. A Transmission Control Module (TCM) is used for transmission control.
