DP Tuner removal

Is there anything special I need to do? I'm trying to troubleshoot my truck and I could send it in for a reflash while I was at it. Thanks.

Remove the key from the ignition before you touch it. Then just unplug the chip from the PCM and you're done. Just don't ever touch the chip if the key is in the ignition.

Thanks! I was hoping I didn't have to do anything to protect the contacts while it was out.

Nope. Just button up the PCM and enjoy your stock truck.
