reseting computer on a 97
ok so i wanted street glow and a friend was selling his i thought maybe i should let pros do it but he said he did his and was only charging me 50 for everything so i said ok anyways we hooked up the toggle switch and all that **** he had to mess with some fuses i didn't unhook the battery so the computer was still on i'm guessing the ending result is i have a toggle switch and lights however my windows don't work my gear shift is tight and won't go into park without cutting it off and my cdplayer won't play and the clock is off i'm guessing it's cuz he unhooked fuses while the computer was on and now i need to reset it cuz my freaking speedometer doesn't even work and i really want to drive my car its an addiction SO.... if anyone can plz anwser my question i would really appreciate it

Take off the negative terminal on the battery for a couple of minutes and put it back on. That's how you reset an ECU.
General rule of thumb, always take off the negative terminal on the battery when workign on something involoving electronics.

i took both off for about 15 mins and the check engine light still comes on. It has a tight gear shift i'm guessing the sensor for the transmission isn't working i know the abs isn't working and the windows still don't work can the dealer fix this problem or is there another way?
you said it yourself, maybe he unhooked a fuse? so then retrace your steps and hook back what he undid. or maybe he blew something? my friend was messing around with his wires tryna get some lights in his car and he short circuited the damn thing. none of the lights nd shiz came on at all. if you don't know what you're doing.. get someone who does. good luck.
