erase DTCs from the vehicle's on-board computer,
manufacturer specific data (where applicable) is also
erased.
If you plan to take the vehicle to a service center for repair, DO NOT
erase the codes from the vehicle's computer. If the codes are erased,
valuable information that might help the technician troubleshoot the
problem will also be erased.

1. Connect the Diagnostic Tool to the vehicle’s DLC. Press the ENTER
button to continue.
2. Turn the ignition ON. DO NOT start the engine.
3. Press and release the ERASE

buttons, as necessary, to highlight
YES, then press the ENTER
button to continue.
- Turn the ignition OFF and wait
for the on-screen prompt.
- When prompted, turn the ignition ON and press the ENTER
button to continue.

buttons, as necessary, to highlight NO, then press the ENTER
button to exit the erase function.
