From everything I have read and the way I did it, DO NOT clean until you see copper. You want the contacts to be silver still. I found it easier to pull the PCM, I don't have any pics sorry, but it is pretty straight forward.

You'll know if it's not clean enough. If it's not, it won't start when the chip is installed.
