I had some time to burn after work, so I thought I'd go through the hassle of waiting in the inspection line - even though I'm a month early for the emissions test. Well, about 4 miles before I got the shop, my CEL came on. I quickly pulled over and reset it. I then drove to the inspection and let my car idle on and off while I was waiting in line.
Sadly, my vehicle failed because the computer was "not ready". ****, I was so close - had that light not appeared when it did, I would have had enough miles on it to go through the inspection without the "not ready" appearing.
