Default EMERGENCY How do I reset computer codes?????????????

Had to jump start the car and now it is throwing all kinds of codes. How do I reset it. I cannot drive the car right now because the thing keeps yelling at me.

Getting Service Column Lock but nothing is wrong with the Column Lock

Here you go:

1) Key on but do not turn over.
2) Clear any open door/check engine codes from the DIC by hitting reset button
3) Holding down config key (4th key down) hit fuel key 4 times. After resetting as many codes as I've had, you can do it with one hand. :D
4) System will cycle through the codes. My recommendation if you just want to reset them and not examine them, is to hit reset one time.
5) It goes into manual mode by group. PCM first, TCS second etc.
6) Hold reset key for 2 secs, it clears all the codes in that group.
7) To go to next group, hit config one time and hold down reset again for 2 seconds. The 2nd group is TCS. If you had traction control off, it will clear that and reset it to "on". Just hit TC button (if you have it) and it will go off TC again.
8) You can use the fuel and gauge keys to motor up and down within a group and the config and the key above it for going up and down the groups/
9) When you are through, hit E/M key and it will pop out of that mode.

That should do it. If not, call me tonight at home 936 321-4484 and I'll walk you through it till we gettum' all cleared.
