A typical OBD2 reader won't show body control codes. A Tech II at a dealership or HPTuners will.

Maybe it just takes a while before the code is eliminated. You know, enough cycles of driving with no errors reported will eventually clear the DTC. Just wait a bit.
Hitting that ETS button does nothing for some reason, I just assumed it had to do with my abs & parking light being on....
If that is not the case, then I have another issue :'(

I read on Ondemand5, that it takes 100 drive cycles to get rid of the code(each cycle consisting of start, driving over 10mph, and then the engine being shut off). I may just drive the car Alot tomorrow... about 100 times in the hopes that it goes away
