Is there a quicker way to reset the EEC memory without disconnecting the battery for 30mins?

i think you can just unplug the computer and do it

I have a ford code reader.. and it wont reset the EEC memory... the factory specs have something about key on.. tap brake 15 times and do the hokey pokey... since I cant do the hokey pokey.. Iwas hoping for something else...

You cant just unplug the EEC, it will retain some of the memory for a while (so you dont have to worry about relearn if you get a dead battery or swap batteries)

I just ground the self-test lead with a jumper to get codes, then read them off the blinking check engine light. To clear the codes I disconnect the jumper while codes are being transmitted.
