Saw the light on, the way to work. Had my mom take it to autozone for a free scan. They told her it was prolly the gas cap. Just double checking with you guys that code number is for the gas cap.

Gas cap is a good place to start.

It may reset on it'* own after a few restarts. I don't recall. If you need it reset I should be able to clear it if I have time.
