Well if you changed the battery out after the last CEL, the codes would have been cleared during the battery swap.

It gave your HHR a "lobotomy" of sorts, it's not the most precise method for correcting faults, but many an HHR has benefited from having the Negative battey cable unhooked for 5-30 minutes.

That clears out everything, and triggers the ECM's "Learn Down" mode, giving the vehicle a fresh start.

No codes, no check engine light, new battery, no present issues then, I would run it and if, yes IF the engine light comes back on then pull the codes.
