I had an SES light on and a diagnosis performed and was basically told that my bank 2 cat was plugged, hence the SES light. So, i'm just wondering how the SES light works; if the cat is cleaned and then started performing to reduce the emissions to be within specs, would the SES light go out on its own? Or do you have to get the code cleared and see if it comes back on?
After diagnosis, the code was cleared, after driving a few days later, it randomly pinged back on. I then disconnected neg battery terminal to turn SES light off. A few days it's back on again and remains on.
So i'm just wondering how it works. e.g. does one 'bad reading' trigger the error and the light remains on regardless of whether readings after this are not erroneous. Or does the fact that it's on mean that the cat is continuously not working as it should.
Hope that makes sense
Thanks
