The No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) Present Symptom Chart Index contains the list of symptoms addressed, and directs the technician to the appropriate chart in the No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) Present Symptom Charts . If no PCM DTCs are present and the vehicle symptom is not listed in the No Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) Present Symptom Chart Index, the technician should go to the appropriate Diagnostic article part to continue diagnosis.
