Erase Codes
CAUTION: Erasing the Diagnostic Trouble Codes may allow the
scan tool to delete not only the codes from the vehicle’s on-board
computer, but also “Freeze Frame” data and manufacturer
specific enhanced data. Further, the I/M Readiness Monitor Status
for all vehicle monitors is reset to Not Ready or Not Complete
status. Do not erase the codes before the system has been checked
completely by a technician.
NOTE: Erasing codes does not mean that trouble codes in
ECU have been eliminated completely. As long as there is
fault with the vehicle, the trouble codes keeps on presenting.
This function is performed with key on engine off (KOEO). Do
not start the engine.
