DTC Check / Clear

CHECK DTC
DTCs which are stored in the ECM can be displayed with a Techstream.

The tester can display pending DTCs and current DTCs. Some DTCs are not stored if the ECM does not detect a malfunction during consecutive driving cycles. However, malfunctions detected during a single driving cycle are stored as pending DTCs.
1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3. Turn the tester ON.
4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
5. Confirm the DTCs and freeze frame data and then write them down.
6. Confirm the details of the DTCs (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART ).
