Conditions For Clearing MIL/DTC

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2002 GMC Sonoma, 2002 GMC Safari, 2002 GMC Jimmy, 2002 Chevrolet S10 Pickup, and 2002 Chevrolet Blazer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

A last test failed, or current DTC, clears when the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other non-emission related diagnostic.
Use a scan tool in order to clear the DTC.
