DON`T listen - it`s NOT just a wire!!!



Insert the pin into the wrong socket and you ZAP your computer!!!



If using a home-made type reset wire, be sure to have one with a built-in

resistor - preferably one with an alligator clip on one end and a pin on the

other.

If you buy a reset tool only buy one that reads codes too, because it`s
