I had a check engine light. I disconnected the battery to clear. Light hasn't come back (yet). I bought the Innova 3030 from Walmart. It shows Zero codes, but indicates yellow "Pending Code Present" meaning "Monitors on vehicle not finished self-testing", yet it never does seem to finish self testing, it just cycles through and the flashing "HC" "EV" "2A" "O" and "OH" indicate that those monitors aren't finished.

Questions:
1. How long do you need to keep it plugged in? Will it ever finish self testing those other systems?

2. This reader was $49. Will the other $98 one do any better?

Thanks!
