DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Self-Diagnostic Result Mode
Self Diagnostic Item
Regarding items of DTC and 1st trip DTC, refer to "DTC INDEX ".
How to Read DTC and 1st Trip DTC
DTCs and 1st trip DTCs related to the malfunction are displayed in "self-diag results".
- When ECM detects a 1st trip DTC, "1t" is displayed for "TIME".
- When ECM has detected a current DTC, "0" is displayed for "TIME".
- If "TIME" is neither "0" nor "1t", the DTC occurred in the past and ECM shows the number of times the vehicle has been driven since the last detection of the DTC.
How to Erase DTC and 1st Trip DTC
- If the ignition switch stays ON after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch OFF once. Wait at least 10 seconds and then turn it ON (engine stopped) again.
- If the DTC is not for A/T related items (see "DTC INDEX "), skip step 1.
- Erase DTC in TCM. Refer to "CONSULT FUNCTION (TRANSMISSION) ".
- Select "ENGINE" with CONSULT.
- Select "SELF-DIAG RESULTS".
- Touch "ERASE". (DTC in ECM will be erased.)
