Resetting the computer in a Chevy S-10 is a simple procedure that may be necessary occasionally. If your vehicle is experiencing any ECU issues, the initial troubleshooting step is to attempt a reset to address any potential software glitches. To reset the computer, simply disconnect the battery and touch the positive and negative cables together after they have been removed from the battery for at least 10 minutes. This action discharges the electricity from the vehicle's electrical system and de-powers the ECU. Upon reconnecting the battery, you may need to reconfigure your personal settings, but the ECU should be reset and operational.
