I pulled #17 (YES, I`m POSITIVE it was #17), and the car would not drive for CRAP! I would punch it, and almost nothing! The car felt like a 10 speed bike! I put the #17 back in, the car seems to run fine, but now I have a "engine trouble" light on! Whats weird is the car smells like its running RICH, and my mileage shot up to 18-20 just while driving around my neighborhood?

I got the following codes too!
V0121
V1120

WTF? Will the "engine trouble" light go out on its own? What should I do?

Did you disconnect the battery? Perhaps the computer needs to reset itself.

GL with solving that!!! your in my prayers

 

[AZCHARGER]

Well, I said SCREW IT! I just disconnected the negative cable for about 15 min. I went out, reconnected it, did the ESP relearn, throttle position relearn, and MDS relearn!

All seems to be WELL!

NO codes, NO engine lights!

Did I forget to reset anything? :smile:

i bet you had to change your pants their for a second... if i were you i woulda shat myself!

I was like "WTF, All I did was pull a fuse".

FUSE 17 CAN KISS MY A$$! :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[milkdud99]

just think of when someone blows it, and thinks their car is DONE

 

[beezn]

you forgot to relearn the one-touch window down.

 

[gserp4sox]

Hey guys, what exactly do you mean by "relearn"? Did you actually go through some sort of sequence, or does the PCM just do it automatically whenever the battery is pulled?

 

[Hemiready]

I've heard about some of these resets.
Having disconnecte my battery twice I would also be interested in knowing what to do.
thanks

There's a decent thread on this on lxforms:

Thanks. I have no idea if my MDS is functioning. My window seems to work fine so maybe I wont even mess with it!
I did get a warning light once on the stability control but I turned the wheel left and right and it shut off.

wow. what the hell is fuse 17 for?

 

[dagummit]

wow. what the hell is fuse 17 for?

Doesn't that control the ABS system?

 

[NeedHP]

I've seen threads were people say pulling a certain fuse (maybe 17 not sure) disables ESP (electronic steering) 100% (but also disables ABS). Something I'm just never willing to try. Right up there with turning your ignition key to 'start' and holding it there to get past the 130 mph computer controlled govenor.

Buy the GS Motorsports esp/fan mod for total deactivation of the esp and torque management system,while letting the fan run to help keep engine temperatures down. No more pulling fuse#17 :happy:
