I am trying to figure this out as well, as to why those two fuses, which schematically do not remove power from the ECM, are claiming to work for you guys (and gals). Not trying to be condescending, stieger and I were having a lively conversation I thought. Even the PI from 2009 for the 2010's clearly does not mention the 5 fuse under the hood, it points out the B+ fuse in the trunk. I myself am trying to understand how it is possible this is working.

I strategically said 'Acting Like'............
This way I'm not outside of forum rules.
All we know is what I just posted. We got the idea after the engineers left Bama and Scotts car was running lights out and mine was still posting 14 second quarter mile and 6.2 second 0-60s.
When the engineers left they never told Scott what they did. Only that they found the issue. I should say HIS issue) Scott saw the thread where the tuner pulled those two threads before he tuned GMRULZ's car to 'Get the ecm to factory defaults'.
I had already done a battery disconnect for the night, and before and after dynos........... no difference and tried fuel boost and several other small things to no avail.
Scott called me that August 2009 Sunday morning and I refused to pull the fuses figuring it was a big waste of time. He talked me into it and I did it. No harm. Well when I put them back in 3 hours or so later after he called me back, I went immediately out to run the car on the clock and video. It sounded better on start up. And when I ran it I recorded a 5.2 second 0-60. I thought it was a mistake. (but the way my car felt and sounded I figured it was accurate) Me previous best singe run recorded 5.7 and was a cool and dry morning. I did a few more runs and all were under 5.3 seconds 0-60. So about 5 runs ALL better than the fastest run I had made in the 2 months prior to that and all WELL faster than my Average of around 6.2 seconds. I even recorded a run of 4.9 seconds. Which was .8 fast than the fastest pre-fuse pull.
As far as the next two MYs, I asked the few people I know at GM and they confirmed that they had no new info but that it more than likely hadn't been addressed on the assembly line. That coupled with the claims that we were getting.
Were some of those placeabo? I suppose it's possible. But I had moved on with my mods anyway so wasn't in a place to have any first hand knowledge.
I have asked guys ALL THE WHILE since to time their cars and document it the way I did. Nobody has done it. Not my fault but leaves questions for sure.
I do not know how to read electrical schematics. I did not find what we figured to be a battery back-up in line from the battery to ECM. Not sure why the battery disconnect didn't help me the first time.
I do know that I have dyno sheets showing my first pull being rich as hell and pulling 297 RWHP as apposed to running a healthy mixture and 335 after the fuse pull.
I have asked ANYONE who could explain it better to help out and have had a few try but nobody has come in here to explain it without first telling us we were imagining our gains.
Makes me laugh me ass off when someone comes in and says "This is BS, I pulled mine and nothing happened".
People misunderstand what we are saying. The fuse pull was NEVER said to be able to ADD power to a healthy SS. Just to adjust a nannied condition in one that was affected by low octane gas.
