Altenate way to reset ECU

Any other way?
Somewhere I read that instead of disconnecting the battery there is a fuse we remove for a few minutes and put back in. This way you don't have to reprogram your radio and memory seat and stuff.
Any thoughts?

It won't keep you from having to reprogram anything. I have reset it that way (can't remember which fuse, though, clock/back-up, something like that) and still had to reprogram it.

yes the clock/back-up fuse located on the passanger side. take it out for about 10 sec. This should do the trick.
