Pulling fuses, battery cables, etc will only slow it down, so don't do that. ![]() There is a subroutine after a fuse pull, battery disconnect or software update that reads the CAN BUS files and then reconfigures the system to reflect the options installed on your car. Two hours later when I went out the system rebooted. I freaked out and pulled fuses, battery etc. My system booted to a blue Chrysler system and I had no control over my climate control, no Sirius, no Nav and no back up camera. I had this happen to me because of bad timing of a software update in 2017 on my Challenger GT. It also means features like lane keep, blind spot monitoring, etc. It defaults to the base configuration, which is a car with AM/FM radio and no nav, no Sirius, no back up camera and usually a different brand vehicle. It erases everything in the system that is programmed regarding what options and make your vehicle are. When you disconnect the battery the system does the same thing it does when an over the air update is pushed to the system and the CAN BUS communication system files are overwritten.
