'89 6000LE -- ECM help needed.
It's a 2.8L V6, Fuel Injection.
The problem is that the battery was disconnected, and when it was reconnected, the car stalls at idle. The engine searchs for a while, and can't maintain an idle on it's own. We need to reset the ECM so that the computer can relearn and adjusts. Is there a fuse that needs to be pulled? (Honda's have to have the hazard fuse pulled) Disconnect the battery, turn the ignition for a certain number of seconds? I looked through a Haynes manual, and couldn't find it. Anyone know?

Clean the throttle bore before doing this procedure
Disconnect the battery again (disconnect the negative terminal) reattach the battery, apply the parking brake and chock the front tires. For safety sake, remain in the car with your foot on the service brake during the next steps!!!! Turn off the A/C, start the engine and place the transmission in Drive. Allow the car to idle for about 30 minutes or until the cooling fan comes on. Turn off the engine and wait about 5 minutes. restart the engine and allow to idle in gear for about 10 minutes. That should relearn the idle.
