On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Pending Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs): Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Pickup, 2005 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2005 Ford F450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Excursion. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Pending DTCs are DTCs that have only set during one drive cycle and may not have set the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) yet. These DTCs may be identified using the retrieve pending DTCs feature. Additionally, they are found in the vehicle-specific mode retrieve/clear continuous memory DTCs from the instant that the DTC is set.

This function only reports pending failures that have occurred during the present drive cycle, but does not indicate single failures that occurred on any previous drive cycle.
