How long does it take to clear emissions light on Honda Odyssey?
It can take a few drive cycles, though. You can have the code cleared with the same tool used to pull the code or you can disconnect the battery for a few minutes (make sure you have your radio codes first) to clear the code and then see if the light comes back after a few drives. It can take a week or two to complete the full drive cycle.
What does the emissions code mean on a Honda Odyssey?
This code means there is a leak in the fuel vapor evaporative recovery system, or commonly referred to as the evap system. The fuel system is sealed and evaporative emissions are stored in a charcoal canister until the computer decides it’s a good time to suck those vapors into the engine.
What does self diagnostic do on Honda Odyssey?
The system does a self diagnostic at certain intervals to make sure that system is sealed properly. The gas cap, along with other parts, is part of that seal. There are also a couple of solenoid valves that open and close to seal the system, or allow fuel to be put in, or to pull the vapors into the engine and burn them.

How to check the emissions light on a Honda Odyssey?
The first thing I’d check is the seal on the gas cap. The cap needs to be tight of course, but also make sure the seal clean and undamaged and make sure the mating surface of the seal on the filler neck is also clean and free of any debris. Sometimes a problem can’t be seen and a simple replacement of the fuel cap will solve the problem.
