In order to clear any codes, you have to take specific steps, so it is not easy to erase them by accident. Under the engine module in the Durametric you will see "Fault Codes", directly beneath that menu choice is "Erase Fault Codes"; one reads the codes but does not erase them, the other erases them. Very straight forward. As long as you do not erase them, and the problem persists, the DME will retain them.
