You May Have To Restart The Ecu Its A Hassel To Do It But The Easiest Is Removing The Neg. Cables From The Battery And Pump The Brakes To Discharge The Ecu Maybe That Will Work

do i have to mess with the ECU??

or do i just remove my negative wire from batter, leave it off for a night, and then pump the brakes several times . and then connect the negative terminal back, that should solve the problem??

There are two ways to reset the ECU.

Method 1: disconnect battery
Method 2: a combination of pressing the accelerator and turning the key. I don't know the right sequence.

You shouldn't have to pump your brakes if you are disconnecting the battery..at least thats my understanding.

If you're looking for something more immediate, the ECU reset method is posted on TechnoSquare's website. Google it up.
