Just unlatch to disconnect and pull out carefully. <div align=center" style="margin-top:20px;margin-bottom:20px;"> <img src="http://qcwo.com/technicaldomain/uploads/vw_latched_ecm_connector.jpg" /> </div> Best Regards, Richard Richard, the connector should have a latch that locks the ecm harness. Just unlatch to disconnect and pull out carefully.

Most installations are similar. What changes is the location in the circuit of the EPROM chip to be replaced. In some 2.0L computers, the chip is located on a flip board that is installed upside down, against the main circuit. If it is a Bosch computer, it can be recognized by using a gray label, with the software number, which usually starts with "1267xxxxxx". Some are socketed, but many are soldered in the circuit, so desoldering will be needed in most cases. Cheers, Richard Hello Rooster.
