I’ve been taking the car to a shop that uses the Porsche diagnostic tool to do a full CEL reset and they then take the car to have it smogged. $200. I’ve done it twice.

Now the twist. I had the car in storage for the winter and the battery died. The car’s been been without power for a few months. I installed a new battery today and the car started fine. With NO CEL! It was on when I parked it last fall.

Question: does disconnecting the battery completely clear the diagnostic codes?
If you disconnect the battery long enough the DME/ECU looses all memory and then resets to factory defaults when you reconnect a battery.
