If she's anything like my mrs, it may not be a bad thing to not have a radio while she's driving - one less thing to concentrate on LOL.

Seriously though, all eeproms are resettable. It depends on what particular one it is though, but most require a 0V input onto one of the legs - again which leg depends on the type of eeprom.

eeprom stands for electrically eraseable programmable read only memory. If you can find the chip number off the top of the eeprom chip, I may be able to help. They are usually fairly easy to spot as they are usually larger than most chips.
