How to reset ECU

Dec 23rd, 2002, 10:27 AM

I was messin around with the intake to see if a cold air was even possible. I removed the mass-air flow sensor assembly from the acordian tubing and the car would die, kinda cool. But the last time I did it the stupid service engine light came on. Anyone know how to turn that off/reset the ECU. The service guys at Nissan are dicks so I would like to do it myself. Thanks

unhook your battery overnight, or bring it to pep boys or some place and have them reset it, its free around where I live

or u can just leave it, and after u turn it on like 25 times, the light goes off by itself........but u can always disconnect the battery(negative) overnight.

disconect the battery and turn the key to start and hold for 30 seconds. (In park or with clutch in)
