Did he reset the code?

No, he did not. Probably it is because I didn't ask. D'oh!!

Will do. Thanks.

Looks like everything is back to normal. The next morning, after I disconnected the car's battery that night, I placed it back and the CEL is gone. Been driving the car around since and the CEL is definitely gone. No noticeable problems. Car runs smooth. No power loss - etc etc. Thanks for the help, guys.

Now if only I can get that intermitent radiator warning light to stop coming up, even if my coolant fluid is full.

(Yeah I've been reading the posts regarding this radiator warning light thingy - but that'll be on a different thread. hehe For now, my CEL problem is fixed.)
