HINT:

*: For every 65 ms that the ECM receives a grille shutter system malfunction signal from the grille shutter ECU (swing grille actuator assembly) the ECM determines it has received the signal 1 time. If the ECM determines the malfunction signal has been received 17 consecutive times (the signal is received for approximately 1 second continuously), it will store a DTC.
