Idle computer

Recommended Posts

Mine is fucked in the head, I stall because my car can't maintain a proper idle.

 

I heard that removign the fuse for the comptuer then putting it back in resets it. then you start your car, let it idle in drive for 5 mins. shut it off, start agian and let it idle in drive again for anotehr 5 reprograms it

 

My question is, does this work, and where to i find the fuse for the idle computer?

 

I am driving a 1991 cutlass supreme sl 3.1 V6

 

 

thanks guys

Did you recently have you battery disconnected?? Cuz if you do that, the car wont idle properly and it had to relearn idle. Let me know on that......

I kinda have the same problem with a low idle and have had the battery unconnected in the past 2 months, but I kinda had a bad idle before. I guess any help would be good with this! suggestions for the both of us! thanks in advance!!

Pull the ECM fuse and put it back in. Start car and put it in overdrive. Hold brake and let it idle between 5 and 7 minutes. Shut car off, start car and do it again.
