Right, the top fuse slot is for the daytime running lights. Thanks for clearing that up.

Maybe we should have a FAQ item on this...

To reset the ECU and/or clear the Check Engine light:

1) Put the key in and turn to on and back to off position and leave the key in.

2) Remove fuse #16 ("Back-up", 7.5A) from the third fuse slot from the top on the right column of fuses of the interior fuse box. This will be the second actual fuse in countries without daytime running lights (the top slot will be empty.)

3) Keep the fuse out for at least 10 seconds.

4) Replace the fuse in the same orientation and slot.

5) Turn the key back on and start the car to verify that the fuse has been replaced correctly.


Did I get that right? Will this both reset the ECU and clear the Check Engine light?

 

Yep, that is it.
Case closed.....
