Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes

To retrieve or clear DTCs, connect the scan tool to the data link connector (DLC). Follow the instructions for the scan tool being used. All continuous DTCs will be displayed on the screen. Before proceeding with the clearing operation, make note of the DTCs displayed, because once cleared, they cannot be retrieved. Hard DTCs will be redisplayed after clearing DTCs since they cannot be cleared from the RCM.
