Do I have to clear the error myself or should the error go away on its own once fixed?
If I clear the error without fixing the cause by mistake, will it reappear?

I bough a BlueDriver. So basically, I plug it first, then key in "on" position. Then, when I finish to scan, I turn off the car first and I then I unplug the scanner. Am I right?

Thank you - I just wish there was a master list of all OBD-2 codes vs. paying KIA $20 to figure out their specific code 😢

It might be clear and concise but it doesn't tell me how to use one!! Let's hope I can find a video that will.

My OBD scanner used to display codes, but not anymore. Did I delete everything? How can I fix this problem? My 'service engine soon' and 'ABS' lights are constantly on, so there is obviously a problem with my GrandAm Pontiac. Thanks.

Which car do I select if I have a V6 Executive Holden Commodore? A Pontiac?

If the problem is not the gas cap would the code pop back up? Or is it gone once erased
