Clear Check Engine Light??
I filled my '99 TL with gas and immediately my check engine light came on so I suspect I didn't screw the cap on well enough. After adjusting the cap it still won't go off (even after 3 trips).
Can this light be cleared by me without taking it in? Manual only says how to clear the maintenance required light.

press and hold select AND reset buttons, then while holding it turn on the ignition, it should turn off in a few seconds.

My "service advisor" has told me that if it is truly the gas cap (evap system), the car needs to go through 6 to 8 complete heat up/cool down cycles (like about a week's worth of commuting) for the code to clear. If it is truly the evap causing the CE light, it WILL clear by itself after that.
