haha, don't stomp too hard. You just need to tap the brake pedal. Either way, if you already disconnected the battery cable then you no longer need to do the brake stomp as disconnecting the battery will clear the code for you.

so my cape is still safe?

Jorge, I think you're right about the DCS/TCS.............it will go away without turning it all the way if you just drive the car and make a couple of decent turns. At least mine will, but I always just go ahead and do it the normal way.

yeah, just read this... all you have to do is tap the brake pedal hard enough to turn on the brake lights.

LOL I'm just imagining a neighbor coming out the door and seeing this guy repeatedly stomping the **** out of his brake pedal in the driveway. I'd call the cops and say a crazy person is pissed at his car.
