Didn't tighten my gas cap SES Light ON
 
I just got gas and was in a hurry. I totally forgot to tighten the gas cap as tight as it should be. Now my @#$%^& SES Light is ON. What does one have to do to make it go OFF. I tighten the cap but it's still on.

Drive around, It will eventually go off if it realizes the problem has been corrected like 10-20 drive cycles later.

You dont know how many people I get at work with the check engine light on due to this. They feel kinda dumb and I let em go what can I say. I wish I didnt wast my time scanning cars for such dumb reasons but what can I say.

Off the top of my head I cant remember, ive only had 2 5th gens do this with old women as the drivers. But several other GM/Chrysler/fords/honda/ect... I have too many codes to think of.
Sorry dude.
