computer reset?

it's just like everything is going out at the same time! ac won't stay on, fuel pump won't work. fans come on as soon as i turn the key, and it won't start. i took the fuel pump out to test it. it worked? my wife is starting to hate my max (2nd car). if i can't get this weekend it's sold.

if you are wanting to know how to reset the computer what you do is either:

1. turn your key to the on position (but don't turn the engine on), turn the diagnostics screw all of the way clockwise, let the two lights flash 4 times, turn the screw all of the way counterclockwise, turn the key to the off position and wait about 5-10 seconds.

2. Unplug the battery for 24 hours.

I don't believe resetting the ecu will have any effect on your problems though. Sounds like there could be some major wiring problems.

check the fuses for blown out, i have never had this problem but if there were such fuses responsibled for these issues. I would check them out. You should check the box on the driver side and the fuses box under the hood by the battery. Let me know if that works.
