Ditto. Resetting it will let your car adjust quicker, but over time it adjusts anyway.

And to reset it correctly you pull out the RADIO/CLOCK back up fuse, not the ECU fuse. Just pull it out for a second, that should be fine. You don't have to wait like 10 minutes, or pump the brake, or dance around the car on one foot, and many other methods that have been suggested.
finally real dyno proof

thanks eddie:thumbup:

Ok wait, because I am seeing all kinds of different fuses to pull or disconnecting battery cables and all kind of crap.

On my 1995 Honda Accord EX, which fuse do I pull?

TIA

in your car, you would pull the 7.5A fuse, that's marked Radio Back Up. This is in the fuse box located in the engine bay near the passenger side shock tower.

Default Reset ECU - check engine light

Pulling the Radio backup fuse does clear the codes and check engine light but you will have to reset the clock and enter the Anti Theft code if you have a Honda stereo with that feature.
