- In this mode, PCM/TCM will display DTC 12 by flashing the MIL once, followed by a short pause, then 2 flashes in quick succession.
- DTC 12 will be displayed 3 times. If no other codes are stored, DTC 12 will continue to flash until diagnostic terminal is ungrounded. To exit diagnostic mode, turn ignition off and remove jumper from DLC.
