How do you reset the computer. Will resetting the comp have any affect on my shift points because i had them reset when i changed out my gears and had my car tuned.
whatever the problem is i hope it's not that serious and costly.

Anyway, turn key on but don't start car. Pull the PCM BAT and PCM IGN fuses in the engine compartment fuse box. Wait 10 minutes. Turn ignition off. Replace fuses.
Resetting the PCM will not affect your tune. Tunes are stored in flash memory, the only way to lose that is to reflash the PCM.
