Why can't it? You're too trusting of your dealer  ;)  ;)
Have you done  'pedal trick'? .....
ignition off
press both brake & throttle to the floor
ignition on - don't start it though
count your EML flashes
if NO fault stored it'll flash constantly for ever more
if there's a code it'll flash the EML as series of flashes with a slight pause bewtween each number 10 flashes = zero  ;)

+1, you need to physically check that the plugs have been fitted
