Note
When the diagnosis system is changed from normal mode to check mode or vice versa, all DTCs and freeze frame data that were recorded in normal mode are cleared. Before changing modes, always check and make a note of any DTCs and freeze frame data.

Malfunctions that were not detected a second time by the ECM during the second driving cycle are stored as pending DTCs.
