    OBD-11 ???

    EDIT: You must mean OBD-II. I'm a tard...

    Anywho.

    Just pull the battery cable for a few minutes, that should do it. If I remember right, I never got it to work by pulling the fuse. Unless I didn't pull it long enough or something.

      Got this from LS1tech.com. I assume it will clear many if not all codes...not just the SES. Have not had to try it myself. Similar to above post about pulling the main fuse, though. Here it is:

      "you can easily reset the SES light by following these steps:

      1. Turn key to the "on" position but don't start car
      2. Pull the PCM BAT and PCM IGN fuses in engine compartment
      3. Wait approximately 5 minutes
      4. Turn ignition off
      5. Replace fuses
      6. Start the car and then make sure the light has gone off

        I bought a scanner from ebay a while back that costed me $50. It reads the codes then erases them. I know www.harborfreight.com hasd them for $39.99 now. Works great!

        Get on their site, go to part lookup, and type in
