Check Engine Light

Quick question, I just had my 2006 GP tuned up emissions checked all sensors cleaned replaced the whole 9 yards. A couple days later I gassed up, check engine light came on a few days later, I looked up the problem in the manual, the gas cap was listed, went out to the car, found the gas cap was loose, tightened it up. This was 5 days ago, the has remained on and I have refuled during that time. I am wondering how long it will take for the light to reset or is this something I will need to bring in to have done professionally?

Any info would be appreciated, thanks.
 


it usually takes a little while
if its buggin you take it to autozone they should be able to scan the code then clear it for you for free
 
The EVAP - SMALL LEAK code P0442 from the gas cap takes I *think* 3 consecutive COLD starts and PCM pressure checks to be cleared without a scanner.

If the CEL isn't going off after a week, you probably still have a leak. Get a new gas cap anyway.
