Self-Diagnostic System: Notes

Instrument cluster is equipped with a self-diagnostic system, which detects system Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) or abnormalities. When certain malfunctions occur, instrument cluster will store a DTC. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DTC DEFINITIONS  table. Malfunctions are recorded as history/intermittent failures or as current failures. Current DTCs indicate instrument cluster has detected a fault which is currently present (some codes will remain current until next ignition cycle even if fault no longer exists). A history DTC indicates that instrument cluster has previously detected a malfunction that is not currently present.
