i'm not sure which parts you are not getting what i'm saying. Reason why i say that you should check with a scanner is because since you drive such small trips, you do'nt know when your ecu has determined that all of your system is ready. If you have a CEL, you reset it, try to get inspection, you can't because your ecu is not ready. A scanner will tell you if the system is ready and which systems are not ready. I.E., a bad 02 sensor might not come up right after you reset the ecu because it takes time for the ecu to sense that teh monitors are ready.

The guy who you called a newb comment was probably talking about how you keep resetting your ecu after you check your codes. Everytime you reset your ecu, you're not letting enough time in between for the ecu to do its job.
