Also, don't just get a scanner and clear the codes because the readiness monitors will not show ready soon enough. They require a certain amount of drive cycles before they show ready. This is dependent on vehicle.
If the Light is visible (on) the technichian is supposed to fail it... By recording it is on...

Erasing the codes will give a P1000 and the inspection machine fails the car... It normally takes a 40mile drive to reset all the monitors on most cars...
