WARNING! Do not clear any DTCs
before the vehicle has been repaired

DTCs will continue to set and turn on the
MIL.
Note: If the vehicle stores permanent
DTCs, they cannot be erased by the Scan
Tool. They can only be erased by the OBD
II system, after repairs are made, and a set
number of Driving Cycles have been
completed.
