I always hear people say reset it but how do you reset the ecm exactly ? also where is the ecm ?

Disconnect battery for at least 10 seconds. The ECM is behind the glovebox on the center console.

Disconnect the battery for 10-30 seconds. When you restart the engine it will run crappy until you drive it 30mph for a couple miles. What the computer is doing is resetting and gathering information again for air/fuel mixture and other things.

The ECM is behind the center compartment of the center armrest console. You have to remove the shift console to get to it.

You'll find 4 screws under the ashtrays for the shift console. After that you'll see the two screws that hold the center console. Unplug the cigarette lighter, pull out the console, and then you'll see it... the flux capacitor, I mean ECM.

Other info you might need (if you don't know already)... under the black panel where the cigarette lighter is, is the diagnostic terminal. If you ever have to "check for codes" this is where ya do it.
