i'm not familiar with the emission law for cali is but i guess doing a drive cycle then going back and seeing if it passes. thats probably your best bet unless someone explains the diff between Cali and NYS inspections. ( I know the nys inspection laws since i'm a certified inspector )

Check the ECU fuse under the hood next to you battery (96-00). If that is blown the ECU will reset everytime the car is turned off.
