Replacement of ECM	Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) registration	MIL comes on
Replacement of ECM	ECU communication ID registration (Immobiliser system)	Engine start function
Replacement of ECM (If possible, read the transaxle compensation code from the previous ECM)	Reset memory*1 Transfer transaxle compensation code Perform road test to allow ECM to learn	Large shift shock Deterioration of fuel efficiency	for Initialization for Registration
Replacement of ECM (If impossible, read the transaxle compensation code from the previous ECM)	Reset memory*1 Reset transaxle compensation code Perform road test to allow ECM to learn	Large shift shock Deterioration of fuel efficiency	for Initialization for Registration
Replacement of ECM	Code registration	Wireless door lock control system Smart key system (for Entry Function) Smart key system (for Start Function)

NOTICE:

Before removing the park/neutral position switch assembly, check that the shift lever is in N.

PROCEDURE

1. SECURE VEHICLE

(a) Fully apply the parking brake and chock a wheel.

CAUTION:

Make sure to apply the parking brake and chock a wheel before performing this procedure.
If the vehicle is not secure and the shift lever is moved to N, the vehicle may suddenly move, possibly resulting in an accident or serious injury.

5. DISCONNECT TRANSMISSION CONTROL CABLE ASSEMBLY

(a) While disengaging the clip as shown in the illustration, disconnect the transmission control cable assembly from the transmission control shaft lever together with the clip.

*a	Clip
*b	45° to 60°

6. REMOVE PARK/NEUTRAL POSITION SWITCH ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:

Both the park/neutral position switch assembly and transmission control shaft lever are available in two different shapes due to design changes. As they are not compatible with each other, when replacing the park/neutral position switch assembly, make sure to also replace the transmission control shaft lever as a set.

(a) Disconnect the park/neutral position switch assembly connector.

(b) Remove the nut, washer and transmission control shaft lever from the manual valve lever shaft sub-assembly.

NOTICE:

Before removing the park/neutral position switch assembly, remove any dirt or rust on the installation portion of the manual valve lever shaft sub-assembly. Be sure to remove the park/neutral position switch assembly straight along the manual valve lever shaft sub-assembly while being careful not to deform the plate spring that supports the manual valve lever shaft sub-assembly. If the plate spring is deformed, the park/neutral position switch assembly cannot be reinstalled correctly.
