CEL cleared after power-washing the engine

I know it sounds stupid but the CEL was constantly on for over 6 days and I was supposed to take it to the garage tomorrow. I power-washed the engine (with high preassure) while it was running and right afterwards blow-dried it. Right after this, the CEL disappeared.

Any reasonable explanation to this?

Are you the same one who started a thread asking if it was ok to wash the engine? I have no idea why this would happen. Maybe it was coincidence.
