Hahaha yeah I can definitely see how someone would be like "WTF.......?"
Pulling the fuse is essential to the process, or otherwise disconnecting the system. I'm sure there is another way to do it, but pulling the fuse removes all power from that module, achieving the goal without having to unplug connectors that are probably buried deep in the dash or elsewhere.
All the coding is doing is telling the car not to expect the system to be there, so that when it is powered down, the car doesn't go nuts thinking there is an error or malfunctioning component.
I'll see what I can do to help you locate the fuse, and we can go from there. We'll figure it out one way or another!
