Default obd pending code C0700

I have a obd II reader. I got C0700 (LF Solenoid Circuit Malfunction) pending. Anyone know what this is related to? It's some thing with the ABS break system? Should I be worry? Thanks!

Could be a false reading. It does point to the LF ABS solenoid, but the only way you can verify it would be to have your dealer look at it - at your next visit if nothing seems to be wrong. If it comes up OK, then your OBDII may be at fault. If you have access to another reader, then check to see if you get the same results, in which case you would want to return or exchange it.

Does anyone know how to reset the ECU? On my 2003 Acura TL, I can just pull a fuse then the ECU will reset. Thanks.

slam_w2k,
You can also have 'Autozone' check the code for you for free by hooking up their scanner.

Thanks Jlawr.

The reason I went to reset the ECU is that my long term fuel trim is showing 7-8%. I put two bottle of techron at the last gas fill up. My long term fuel trim is now at around 6-7%. My short term fuel trims are good, so I just wonder if I can reset the ECU, so it give me an idea when to clear the fuel system.

I got the same code (C0700) from my ES350, is that the same meaning on "LF Solenoid Circuit Malfunction"?
