NOTICE:
All the stored DTCs and freeze frame data are erased if:
- the ECM is changed from normal mode to check mode
or vice versa; or 2) the ignition switch is turned from ON
to ACC or off while in check mode.
Before changing modes, always check and make a note
of any DTCs and freeze frame data.

intelligent tester. An intelligent tester can display current
and pending DTCs.
