    Default Replacing the PCM (F-body)...

    I installed a PCM, and I did these steps to get car running (require steps 1-3 minimum to run):

    1. do full flash to PCM;
    2. write VIN to PCM using scantool;
    3. VATS relink PCM to BCM using tunetool;
    4. make sure engine starts and runs properly;
    5. do CASE relearn;
    6. write oil remaining life to PCM using scantool;

    Are there any other things that need to be done...?

    What about BCC...?

    Further question: does VATS relink write the BCM's serial number (or something) into the PCM (how does it work)...?
