Replaced the transmission control module on my 2002 dodge grand caravan work van due to been stuck in limp mode 2nd gear, after install the problem was still there and was disheartened, more research led me to realizing i had to reset the TCM and then i came across your video, Initially i was skeptical but gave it a go, IT WORKS!!, not only does it work, its works better than ever. Thank-you so much for the information

Damn bro how much was the new transmission control module ? I had my check engine light come on, took it to autozone, n dey said I needed a new one. They were going for like $600-$800 so I needed to find another way 😂. I found out about resetting the cars computer, so I did it (and also changed my transmission fluid because it actually really needed a change) n now my car was running great. But about a week after I reset it, my gauge that tells me if my car is overheating or not, isn’t working. I’m gonna do another reset just to see if it will fix but I’m not sure

Thanks bro, your knowledge actually works even on 800 cc alto car, I was badly disturbed by car abnormal rpm, I paid more than 3000 at service center they cant setups properly , done throttle servicing too, I request them to do calibration too, but they denied, it's ok.. veh is ok..they said, but I was not satisfied by them... finally I did by ur help, thank once again..🙏

I was sceptical at first but it worked like a charm did this on a 2006 Buick Lucerne and upon reconnecting the battery the interior lights came on the horn honked and stopped it started like a charm.

Thanks so much, I had the Rear AC Blower running all the time and it would not switch off (Toyota Sequoia 2014), by doing the reset steps in the this video the problem is solved.... 🤩🤩🤩.

My 2006 Ford focus PATS systems activated and would not turn over. I did this and it reset the system and started right up. Saved me from having to have a locksmith reprogram my system.

This is an absolutely reliable procedure that calls ecu flashing I communly uses on Audis and chevy very successful procedure because it is able to drain mili-volts in every single circuit like capacitors resistance and chips even E-prom component thanks .very nice video greetings from Venezuela.

Thank you very much young man if it wasn't for your video I wouldn't know what to do when my car wouldn't start, much appreciated.

What the hell is a V20? A Volvo? They have a completely different electrical system than the Chevy truck in this video and doing what is did accomplished nothing except perhaps a better connection from the battery to the alternator and cars electrical system. It is no longer B+ to the dash, it is serial data thru one wire and some two wires twisted 9 times per foot to prevent RFI. Don't know what that is...Stop! With battery disconnected & jump positive to negative is simply drain capacitors which is fruitless, waist of time. From 1998 and newer, the dash or instrument cluster (IP) has power, ground and class-2 serial data to operate the shifter's position and gages. Those signals are class-2 a signal from 0-7 volts and a good volt-ohm-meter on pin two of the OBD-2 connector (Cavity 2 - 1.5mm wide) will show 3.5 volts on average on an active circuit. By disconnecting the battery does nothing. Saved favorite radio satiations are still saved on an electronic erasable programmable read-only-memory or (EEPROM) as these are used in almost every module. Re-connecting the battery most likely fixed a dirty-corroded cable and have system voltage, 13.2 volts hot to 14.6 volts hot. By disconnecting the battery (If it will run) you lost the opportunity to check and diagnose the root cause by seeing 12.6 volts at the alternator B+ & ground, then 12.7 volts the battery bolts on the side. If you had a (DVOM) with a Min-Max feature, set it to voltage, crank over, go back to the (DVOM) and see 9.8 volts. This maybe enough to start it be freaks out the electronics or produces 10.4 volts to the entire system while running. Even the shift display has an electric switch on the side, by hydraulic switch inside on the valve body of the 4L60e. Alternators produce direct current, get hot and change output depending on temperature. The lower the temp, the higher the charge. But is one of the 3 positive diodes or 3 negative diodes fail and leak voltage backwards, then A/C voltage goes out thru the entire DC system. This activity disrupted the 0-7 volt class-2 serial data signal, UART, Keyword 2000, Keyword 2001 or GM-LAN (Two wires, twisted 9 times per foot, 120 ohm termination resistors at end modules. 1 volt high & 1 volt low to offset high voltage induction and frequently foil covered and connected to ground.

After more than a year of my engine light being on with the knock sensor code, which was preventing me from getting it inspected for 6 months, I just did this today on my 2002 Chevy Silverado 1500 HD and with this method I was able to get it to pass inspection. I got the knock sensors replaced more than a year ago but that didn't stop the light from coming on. Hopefully, with the new sensors and the ECU recalibrated using your method today, it is fixed now for good.

Very cool. This will help a lot of people

On a modern car this could possible cause power spike in the capacitor causing more issue or even new issues including a fried ecu. You should always use a resistor inline between the negative and positive cables. 1ohm 10w resistor should take roughly 15min . You can use higher resistor but Higher resistors wil need to be connected longer

Have a 2003 Trailblazer EXT Northface Edition 195000 miles, 4.2L 4WD. Had an issue come up where I was losing MPG and power, wouldn't stay on cruise control. Took it to a mechanic in another town because it broke down on the highway, spent $80 for a sensor, no joy. Replaced battery, spark plugs, fuel filter, air filter, and had oil changed; still no joy. Towed it to my long time mechanic ($180 for 40 miles), learned catalytic converter was full. Had it replaced. Still not right. Seafoamed it in gas tank and cleaned throttle body, still engine stuttering and bad mileage. Watched this video, replaced plugs with Bosch plugs and followed directions to clear ECU memory. Took it out and drove it, 45MPH on cruise without any stuttering; 70 MPH, no stuttering; 55 MPH no stuttering and fuel economy is back to normal. Problem seems to be gone! If it is, saved me buying another ECU and having it programmed, probably $800 or more. Thank you!!!!

You can't turn the fuel and spark back on once it has been turned off. I'm just going to have to replace the spark plugs again and I'm gonna have to replace the fuel pump.
