How long does it take to reset? I had a problem with my evap system and it was a missing gas cap. Replaced that and rescanned and nothing showed up. How long should it take reset?

Really? I'm only confused because it's still on after a few days, and it's not showing any codes.

UUUHHHH-OOOOHHHHHHH...!!!
Have you driven the car a lot since then so the car can run through its self-tests? If you're not clearing the code yourself, the car will have to see a certain amount of driving to reset everything itself. Another option is to disconnect the battery or clear the code. If your problem is fixed, the light won't come back on.
