Erasing diagnostic trouble codes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Volvo S40, 2003 Volvo S40, 2002 Volvo S40, 2001 Volvo S40, and 2000 Volvo S40. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can be read off and erased using this function. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can only be erased once all the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been read off at least once.
When erasing diagnostic trouble codes, the diagnostic trouble code's counter, status identifier as well as frozen values are also erased.
For certain systems, stored adaptions may also be reset when erasing.
