That will definitely reset the readiness monitors, not sure about the rest though.

Turning the headlights on when the battery is disconnected just places an additional electrical draw/load across the PCM since it ultimately shares a power connection with the lights. Doing that simply helps to reset the PCM more quickly.
Any alleged actions beyond disconnecting the battery for a few minutes is a myth.
I've never understood why the headlight on/off is part of the ritual. Does the PCM have knowledge of what the headlights are doing?
You missed the "Turning the headlights on when the battery is disconnected just places an additional electrical draw/load across the PCM since it ultimately shares a power connection with the lights. Doing that simply helps to reset the PCM more quickly."I’ve recently done this dance. The headlight part of the instructions have nothing to do with draining the system bc the battery is connected when you do that part. I don’t know what it accomplishes that turning the key on and off won’t do, but I didn’t fight it.

With that response we'll have to agree to disagree that you understood what I said.I didn’t miss anything. That otherwise useful knowledge doesn’t apply to these instructions. I understand that classic move and I tried multiple times to drain the system (key on, accessories on, lights on) without success…before I found these instructions.
Cycling the lights is done with the battery connected if you follow the directions (which are posted elsewhere as well).
These instructions say to connect your battery and then cycle your lights after you have turned the ignition to run. I did this dance two days ago so I’m privy to what didn’t work and what ultimately worked,
Cycling the ignition after reconnecting the battery makes more sense to me since I do so multiple times when installing the Banks turbo tune. But cycling the lights with the battery connected seems a bit odd…I did it anyways and the relearn was finally achieved by following the directions.
Next time I’ll skip cycling the lights and only cycle the ignition to see if still updates.
