Thanks
Ideally, you never want to disconnect the battery to clear codes as there may be others, pending or active, that you would not know about until they reappear. Always rescan the car after it is fixed to see where you stand, then clear the codes. That way nothing is lost.

And, if you have actually fixed the problem, the car should clear the codes all by itself.
