Replacing ECM - 1989 Camaro RS

Just needed to know how I should go about replacing the ECM, and what I should do after I put it in.

So far, I've been told this:

-Remove Battery cables/disconnect battery
-Take out old ECM; Don't touch pins
-Put in new ECM

After putting it in, I have no idea what I should do, or if there is anything special that I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Replacing ECM - 1989 Camaro RS

Alright, thanks. Someone told me that after replacing it, I should drive it around at about 45mph, so the car can relearn itself.

Would it make any difference? Or should I just drive it as normal?
