SELF-DIAGNOSTICS

RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

Note. The following DTC retrieval procedure is performed using A/C-heater control assembly indicators. DTCs may also be retrieved using a scan tool. Follow scan tool manufacturer's instructions to retrieve DTCs.

CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

Remove ECU-B fuse from underhood junction block for at least 10 seconds to clear memory. After installing fuse, verify only normal DTC (DTC B1400/00) appears.
