Answer
Hi Rodney,
What are the code numbers? They are there to tell you what is wrong, not just to be 'cleared'.
Turn the ignition 'on-off-on-off-on and leave on" doing that in 5 seconds or less elapsed time then watch the odometer window to see if the mileage changes to show some 4-digit numbers prefixed by a P. If nothing shows up, then go to an Autozone parts store for a free readout.
