Hope this is in the proper forum.
I bought a new OBD2 to help diagnose issues with my 99 TJ. I am new to all this and never have used one. My jeep is sitting at the mechanics getting frame sections put on so I tested it on my F250 since the check engine light has been on for years. I got the code that I expected then erased codes, the light went off and now shows no code. I am assuming after driving around awhile the light will come on and the code will reappear.
So back to making repairs on my Jeep. When I get it back and scan it in the future and get the code, do I then make a repair and if done right the code goes away? Or do I clear the codes drive around and see if it comes back?
