Had to pull fuses to correct....why?
After pushing my start button, rapid clicking (normal) the clicking would not turn off,
car did not start, no dic or code.
Popped out a few fuses under hood then reinserted fuses and it corrected and started. Now it's fine.
Can anyone explain?

This disconnected power to the ECM and/or BCM which allowed the ECM or BCM to "reset", depending on which fuse(s) you removed.

Pulling the right fuse is like re-booting your computer.

Just remember, you can tell an engineer, but you can't tell them much.
