Check Engine Light WTF?

I wanted to do a little test which involved resetting the ECU. I pulled the fuse for it, #6 in the block on the drivers side IP. Left it for about 30-45 minutes. Now my Check Engine light is on and won't go off.

Any ideas?

Reset the ECU via the battery. I had that happen when I was hooking up my V-AFC but went away after I reset it by unpluging the battery.

Once again, Thanx WT. I had a feeling that is where I was headed. Now I have to find my "code card".

LOL..........STOP pulling those fuses! We only had to do that on the 300 to reset the tranny shifting!
