I wasn't asking about whether the smog people would know if a code has been cleared. I was asking whether the PCM shutting off the MIL implies that the PCM cleared the code. If it does, no problem at the smog check. If it doesn't, or if it only cleared a temporary code but not a permanent one, then I need to get them cleared before I do the smog check.
Unfortunately I don't remember the exact codes, only that they were some sort of "reduced efficiency" codes, which the dealer said meant the oxygen sensors were bad.
