PCM / ECU Reset and Idle Learn

1. start the car and drive it until the engine is at full operating temperature.

2. Park the car, turn off the engine, and pop the hood. Locate the fuse box and lift up the top cover. Using the supplied fuse puller, remove the FI ECU fuse for at least 10 seconds.

3. Replace the fuse and close the box. Make sure that all electronics and accessories are in the off position. Start the car and let it idle for 10 minutes with the hood closed. Do not press on the gas or turn on any accessories during this time.

4. After 10 minutes, turn off the car. The idle speed should now be set. Start the car and go drive like you normally would so the PCM can relearn the fuel maps.
