Clearing Codes
- After repairs are performed, clear ECU memory of all stored codes. To clear memory, turn ignition off. Remove STOP (15 Amp) fuse from main fuse block for approximately 30 seconds or more. See MAIN FUSE BLOCK LOCATION table.
- Depending on ambient temperature, fuse may need to be removed for more than 30 seconds. (Colder temperatures require longer time.) Install fuse and enter diagnostic mode to check for any codes that may not have cleared.
- Codes can also be cleared by disconnecting vehicle battery. However, other memory functions (clock, radio, alarm, seats, etc.) will need to be reset.
