Does anyone know how to loosen the front bracket screws on the ecm? I am having a B@tch of a time

 

You can remove the ECM without taking out the bracket. If I remember right it's like two screws on each side. The screws are tight but with some torque they can be cracked it's just in a tight spot with not alot of elbow room.

 

Thank you I found the 4 screws but I need some kind of tool to get the 2 front 1s I will have to pick up a angle screwdriver unless someone has another way.

 

It been about a year since I replaced mine, but don't the screws have a metric head on them with a phillips fitting in the middle. If that's the case use a ratcheting wrench 8-10mm to crack the screw.

 

its 2, 8mm on each side. from drivers and passengers side.

 

Great Thank you Guys for your help.

 

Bumping this old thread. I'm having trouble removing the ECM.

I have the glovebox removed and kick panel and I removed the wire connector from the ECM but don't know how to take it off. I see screws all over the place.

Are the ones I'm looking for the brass/gold screws that lay horizontal along the front of it. Or are they the two 10 mm bolts with screw heads that bolts a bracket to the floor and lie vertical?
