You need to reset the e-shaft profile by doing the "20 brake pedal stomp" reset procedure.

Turn the key to on, but do not start.
Stomp brake pedal about twenty times(quickly) while watching the oil pressure needle until it sweeps all the way to the right and then back. If doesn't sweep, turn off, wait, and then start over.
Turn key off.
Start car as normal, if it's still on, then start over. (Courtesy of "Mazsurfer".)
