Once a truck throws a code, it will retest each time you start the engine for the next three starts. If the cause of the code has been corrected, the light will go out.

Don't feel bad, I did the EXACT same thing. My check engine light went out after 3 good runs like Cactus said.

Ditto! I've done that 3 times now. Once the truck cycles on and off a few times it will turn off...
