u can always write down the serial # of your radio, and call the dealer to get the code, it should be free.

I would assume the fuse should be under the hood.

good luck.

It didnt have the manuall when I bought the car. im going to remove the stock HU when I upgrade but dont want to do it yet and I neeeed my tunes!

I did the thermoblock spacer & cleaning, but when I started her up she was putting out white smoke: to lean im assuming + I cleaned all the injectors. Definetly needs a reboot. Man ill tell you, the lower intakes on the 99 are a biach. No way to remove them without taking the heads off

there are various places for the radio code...

this is where i found mine: check the fuse box under the hood. it's black and to the upper left (in front of the passenger side) it was a white sticker w/ 5 digits.

Below is the procedure:

Reseting the PCM is a procedure for the computer to relearn the idle. Below is the PCM reset procedure:

1. Pull the No. 13 clock backup fuse (7.5A) from the passenger side fuse box for 10 seconds - put the fuse back in.
2. Start the engine (engine must be cold) and hold it at 3,000 RPM with no load (in park with AC controls off) until the radiator fan comes on, or the engine temp reaches 194 Deg. F.
3. Let the engine idle for about 5 minutes with the throttle full closed.
