DTC Check / Clear [01/2019 - 09/2022]

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

HINT:

DTCs which are stored in the skid control ECU (brake booster with master cylinder assembly) can be displayed on the Techstream. The Techstream can display the current, pending and permanent DTCs.
If a malfunction is detected during the current driving cycle, current and permanent DTCs are stored.
Current DTCs can be cleared by using the Techstream. However, permanent DTCs cannot be cleared using either of these two methods.
After clearing current DTCs using the Techstream, permanent DTCs can be cleared when the system is determined to be normal for the relevant DTCs and then the universal trip is performed. The driving pattern to obtain a normal judgment is described under the "Confirmation Driving Pattern" for the respective DTC.

DETECTION LOGIC EXAMPLES

Pending DTC	Store condition	Malfunction detected
Pending DTC	Clear condition	Power switch turned on (IG) after normal judgment obtained in 1 driving cycle or DTCs cleared using Techstream
Current DTC	Store condition	Malfunction detected
Current DTC	Clear condition	No malfunctions in 40 driving cycles or DTCs cleared using Techstream
Permanent DTC	Store condition	Malfunction detected
Permanent DTC	Clear condition	Power switch turned on (IG) after normal judgment obtained in 3 consecutive driving cycles or After DTCs cleared using Techstream, normal judgment obtained and universal trip performed
MIL	ON	Malfunction detected
MIL	OFF	Power switch turned on (IG) after normal judgment obtained in 3 consecutive driving cycles or DTCs cleared using Techstream
