Press and hold the Options button and simultaneously press the Fuel button 4 times.

The DIC will then list all of the codes.

After the codes have been listed you can delete them by using the Options button to scroll forward and the Trip button to scroll back.

Press the Reset button to delete the codes as you scroll through them.

one way is to take the battery cables off and wait about 30 mins. Then hook it back up and drive it. Hit it hard a few times and then drive it. It takes a while for the computer to relearn but it will. This is the least of my knowledge, ive done it for years on all my cars and it seems to work. Good Luck!

This wouldn't default a dyno tune back to a factory tune would it?
