Diagnosis - Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Memory



The A/C pushbutton control module (N22) has DTC memory and data output. The diagnostic trouble codes and data are displayed via the temperature display window. The stored DTC's will remain in memory even with the vehicle battery disconnected.

The DTC memory differentiates between current and intermittent faults.

All DTC's can also be read with the Hand-Held Tester (HHT).

Preparations for DTC Readout

1. Review 11 , 12 , 14 , 15 , 20 , 21 , 23 , 31

2. Connect HHT, see section 0, readout DTC's. DTC'S which are transmitted via the instrument cluster (IC) series interface, must be readout and the DTC's noted via the DTC memory in the instrument cluster, finally erase the DTC's.

3. Ignition: ON

4. Temperature selector .

5. Within 20 seconds press and simultaneously for more than 5 seconds.

6. The LED in flashes and the display shows .

7. Press repeatedly until all DTC's are displayed. Record each DTC as it is displayed. The current faults (refer to table) are displayed first, next, the intermittant failures (e.g. 45 °5) are displayed in the display window next to the symbol. ° will apppear after the last DTC is displayed. Press again, (delete, erase) will then appear in display.
