Re: Wet Car woes, clearing codes



David,

On the early 89 model 100's (up to Nov 1988 build date)
fuse #19 supplies the +12V directly from the battery to the
fuel injection control unit, removing this fuse for a
minute  "should" clear out any codes. The later 89 100's
use fuse #21 for the same purpose. 

Cheers
