Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's)

Example: How To Read Self-Diagnostic Results:

Determine the code number by counting the times the warning lamp flashes on and off.

When several malfunctions occur at one time, up to three code numbers can be stored; the latest malfunction will be indicated first.

The indication begins with the start code 12. After that a maximum of three code numbers are shown with the latest one appearing first. The indication then returns to the start code 12 to repeat (the indication will stay on for a maximum of five minutes).
