Default Pulled Engine Timing Fuse while engine was running (idiot)
Like a fool, I went to go change the fuse for the cigarette lighter and I pulled the wrong one. The car stalled. When I went to start the car again it started, but this time the Check engine light is on. Any fixes for this? I haven't tried resetting the ECU because I don't know how. Any help would be appreciated.
