20 'clean' starts after the fault has been fixed or a code reader.  :y

I've now done well over 20 starts since replacing my crank sensor and then forgetting to plug the electrical connector back on the throttle housing but I am still getting Codes 19 and 21.

Is there any other way to force clearance of fault codes?
