Or do it the easy way:

Disconnect the NEG side, turn the key to the start position, hold for 15
seconds, remove the key, reconnect the battery. That's the proper way.

You reset the computer by disconnecting the negative battery cable and
a) leaving it off for at least 15 mins or b) turing the key to the start
position
for at least 15 seconds. You would want to reset the computer after doing
some modifications that would change the performance of the engine
ex. throttle body, IAT relocation, headers, new air intake. Be advised
that you will lose the stereo presets and the trip odometer (if you're
tracking
mileage)
