Hi Guys,
While trying to troubleshoot my CEL woes i was trying to troubleshoot why my CEL wouldnt reset with the stomp method. For the longest time i would do the 5 stomps and it would continuously repeat the same code, so i thought i only had 1 error. The problem was that after holding the pedal down for the 10-15 seconds, it wouldnt reset.
Out of frustration, i tried a different method. After the first set of codes were displayed, i did another 5 stomps, and whaddaya know. Another code surfaced. I kept doing the 5 stomps after the 1 long code until the first code repeated. After that i was able to hold it down for 10-15 seconds and it reset.
Im not sure if this procedure is posted on this board somewhere, but every one i have read says that it automatically goes through all the codes until all codes have been read.This was not the case for me.
Anyways.. Just a heads up to those who are having trouble resetting their DME with the stomp method.
Try this method and it might work out for you.
