You want to reset the EML? If you've fixed the fault, then the light will go out anyway. If the EML lamp is still lit, then you still have a fault somewhere. The TechII (both real or cheapo) will only reset the fault codes stored in the ECU, which 20 'clean' starts will do anyway.

It's in the Opelscanner menu never tried, is it the same diag socket  or the 10 pin socket?
