Aw shucks, I'm too nice.
How to remove your ECU/PCM
Necessary tools:
*Phillips offset screwdriver
*Pliers
*10mm ratchet (any size drive)
1. Disconnect the negative terminal of your car battery.
2. Remove the plastic covers that protect the ECU; the driver-side cover is to the right of the accelerator. These are secured by two plastic screws and should pop right off.
3. Using a 10mm ratchet, remove the bolt on the passenger side that is securing all the cabling to the ECU
4. Once the bolt is removed, you can detach the cables from the ECU
5. There are four, round, Phillips-head screws that are securing the ECU to the mounting bracket. They can be found in each corner. Due to the close quarters, a standard screwdriver will not work here. Using an offset screwdriver (99 cents at Sears) and a pair of pliers, remove each screw (this step will consume the better part of an hour).
6. Slide the ECU out by pushing from the driver side to the passenger side.
