# Cold Start the engine. For Cold Star, the engine coolant temperature must be below 50°C (122°F) and within 6°C (11°F) of the ambient air temperature at startup.

# Idle the engine in drive for two and a half minutes with the A/C and rear defroster on.

# Turn the A/C and rear defrost off, and accelerate to 55 mph (88km/hr) at half throttle.

# Hold at a steady speed of 55 mph (88km/hr) for three minutes.

# Decelerate (coast down) to 20 mph (32km/hr) without braking or depressing the clutch.

# Accelerate back to 55 to 60 mph (88-96) km/hr at ¾ throttle.

# Hold at a steady speed of 55 to 60 mph (88km/hr) for five minutes.

# Decelerate (coast down) to a stop without braking.

How do you reset the CPU on a 1998 Safari?

There are 2 possible ways to reset the computer, 1. if it doesnt have a "hard" code in it then you can just disconnect the battery wait for 5mins then reconnect the battery. 2. have a repair shop put the OBD tester on it extract the codes (hopefully fix any codes there) then clear the codes this will reset the computer it will take a completed drive cycle to see if the problem returns. In both cases normal driving will take a couple of days to do the drive cycle and to get all the sensors back online.
