service reset

What do you do when your service reset does not work?
Ignore it?
Go to expensive dealer?
Cut the wires to it?

Ignoring it would be easiest. I'd keep trying though. Look up the different ways to do it. I'm sure you can get it reset. Try not clenching your jaw, I always had my best luck with positive thoughts and pressing my head to the steering wheel.

The biggest variable seems to be when you start holding the button down for the reset.
What seemed to work, is to get in and close the door. Key On. Call up FSS (push reset button a couple times). Once it is diplaying FSS info, HOLD the button down. Key off and back on and keep holding until it resets.

Any chance the dome light is switched off because the door jamb switch is broke? If the door jamb switch on the drivers door is broke it won't reset.

The most complex systems can fail in the simplest way.
