No, it’s not necessarily. Once you have a permanent code, clearing it does *NOT* make it go away. Can the tuner shut the code off by clicking “No Error Reported” in HPT? Yes, and then when you go for inspection the code will still pop up when the inspection station does the ALDL plug in. If the tuner unchecks the “SES Enable” light, that will also shut off the CEL but will flag your emissions as “Not Ready” at inspection time. The only way to clear a permanent code is to fix the problem and go through all the necessary drive cycles.

So, TLDR, if you have plug in emissions it’s not an easy fix. If they just visually look at your CEL to make sure it’s off, or you don’t have inspections, then it will indeed be an easy fix.
