dissapearing SES light

On my way home today, I noticed my SES (CEL) light was lit. I hoped it was probably an 02 sensor or something easy to fix. I pulled into my driveway and checked my codes to find 05 05. everything's fine!

This a normal occurance? or did i probably reset the code by accident when i tried checking them?

thanks.

Was the light still lit before you went to check it?

You may have accidentally cleared the code... not to worry, if the sensor is bad or intermittent, the code(s) will repost soon enough.

It threw the light again on my way home.

My KS code came back, i just need to find some time to swap in the one I have, and I now have a 5th cyllinder misfire and a 02 01 Ignition Signal Circuit.

Sounds like the coil pack might be going, or something's loose. It only happened at higher speed on the freeway (80 - 85ish i think) and I didn't notice any constant misfiring. (i know what constant misfiring is like, I did a bad job of plugging a cable in when I changed my spark plugs.

It seems like something I don't need to worry about until I get the problem full time. Any advice on if i should be worried right now and pull out my coil pack in my 5th cyllinder and test it out?
