this now make a little more sense. Let me explain a few things now.

my every day driving is at least the short trips to school and work. I also go longer distances couple of times a week.
I do not reset the ecu every time I get a code, and I know I am not supposed to. What I do is double check. In this case with the CPS code for example I reset the ecu and will check again to see if it comes back up. There have been many times that a code has come up because there was a split second (not literally) that something did not work up to spec.
A good example of that would be a KS. As you probably know a KS code may and does come up when you change gas stations, type of gas etc.
I have driven with my CEL on before and with multiple codes.

And what I am still confused is what exactly scanner are you talking about? OBDII scan?code reader tool to pull codes?
