Diagnostic Trouble Code
A five digit alphanumeric identifier for a fault condition identified by the OBD II system.
There are three types of DTCs:
1.
Pending
- When a fault condition
is identified during a Drive Cycle,
but does not meet enough
criteria to activate the MIL.
If the fault condition occurs during two
consecutive Drive Cycles, it will turn into
a Stored DTC and the MIL willactivate.
2.
Stored
- ADTC is stored when a fault
condition has occurred that meets
enough criteria to activate the MIL.
3.
Permanent
- A stored DTC that can only
be cleared by the OBD II system, after
repairs are made, and a set number of
Driving Cycles have been completed.
