I forgot who told me this, I think it was silverstreak (lol sorry, dont mean to point virtual fingers) that I should reset my computer since im getting more air in then usual. So tonight, as I got home from class I disconnected my negative terminal for 30secs for it to re-set itself. I was also told that doing so would lose all my presets for the radio..So i connected the - back and started my car...all my presets were still there...how do i know if I did it right? Also, I was reading on a Camaro (2010) forum and they said that its 30mins for it to completely reset itself...which is true and did I reset it?

 

I dont think you need to reset anything for a FWI.

 

swear to god you do, someone back me up so i don't look like an idiot :P

 

I'm sorry to say it but you really don't need to reset the PCM for just a FWI. Once you install it, you're good to go.

 

yeah, i thought it was only for larger things that you need a relearn or whatever, i thought with just a FWI after running it the pcm will get used to it, just like if you installed a tuned pcm, it wont show benefits right away but after a while it will get used to the vehicle settings and the full potential of the vehicle/pcm at that point will be released

 

i stand corrected

 

It's all good man. Sometimes people on car forums are too ready to make fun of people when they're just beginning to learn. That's why I like it here. There are plenty of people on here ready to give advice without being mean as well. Keep modifying the Monte. It's fun to do
