What don't you understand? Did you clear the code or disconnect the battery? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

I did not , I was all ready to clear the code that was there for months and I'm pretty sure they were both pending and confirmed . When I got done I fired it up and they were gone . Auto electric usually throws me a curve ball .

Pending codes usually don't light up a check engine light but by description pending means it is waiting for a second occurance of the problem before it sets an actual code. If that doesn't occur, it will clear the pending code until it happens again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
