Really just the #5 in the fuse box and the #13 in the trunk. But just pull all of them to be sure.

thanks .. funny for me when i pulled them i had the opposite experience.. Since I've taken delivery from day 1 i've put in nothing but 93octane..

I only decided to try this fuse pull only to see if i can get the car to wake up more... even though it already had some serious exhilaration from 0- 60..

anyhow .. after a few hundred miles after the fuse pull (taking it out to work and back home).. the beast is back.. I guess for me all along i didn't need to do the fuse pull to begin with.. I think having driven it i were sluggish at the start becuase the eCM were trying to remap all the timing settings or air fuel mixture..

I was wondering why people were saying #10.

The 2010s are the #13 in the trunk. Wonder why they changed the slot?

So we need to pull #5 in main fuse box, #10 in trunk and forget about #20? Or pull all three to be sure?

Well, like I posted, the GM service bulletin calls for the #5 and the trunk fuse. (apperently the trunk fuse is 13 on the 2010s and 10 on the 12s and 13s)

But no reason not to pull them all. I suspect that the 5 and trunk would be fine.

Resurrection.

How long does the trunk ECM/Batt #10 fuse need to stay out of a 2013?

One post I read somewhere said 30 seconds...

So will any of this work on v6 lfx engine. Please help. I switched against what dealership told me and been using 93 for 2 tanks now. I notice a bit of a difference and also better gas milage. I was told the lfx learns itself without fuse pull. Love to hear some opinions and input.

Fuse pull is just for the V8

Did the 5 and 20 fuse pull...

AND it was 50'F + sunny (no tire crack'N concerns)...but no butt-dyno difference.

Guess she had 93 in the tank from the begining
