Durametric clear CEL for smog?
I know the durametric software can clear fault codes, but can it be cleared so my car can pass smog? I'm currently fiddling with a 0430 code and I think the car should pass because the prior owner successfully smogged it about 4 months ago. It's just the annoying light that is preventing me from smogging the car.

It will clear the fault and turn off the light until the next time the fault is logged.

It isn't the light
The CEL light is just an indication of the real problem.
Clear the light/codes with your code reader. Now the ECU goes into a learning mode and most SMOG tests that use the OBD2 port will detect that the ECU hasn't had enough cycles to learn the new values and tell you to come back when it has. So the real challenge is to figure out the real cause so that, once fixed, after you've driven enough cycles for the ECU to have learned, the ECU will show no codes and no CEL when queried by the smog guys. |

Fix the car, and then it will pass. |
