ok, as A LAST RESORT, i'm pretty sure
the 4 digit code is on a label on the back side
of the PCM itself. in order to see this label,
you have to unbolt the PCM and pull it out.
be careful with the cables and connectors
if you go this route.

you would want to disconnect the battery also before
pulling out the pcm
