Starts Since Set Counter

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1997 Dodge Viper and 1996 Dodge Viper. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The starts since set counter counts number of times vehicle has been started since codes were last set, erased, or battery was disconnected. The reset counter will count up to 255 start counts.

The number of starts helps determine when trouble code actually happened. This is recorded by PCM and can be viewed on DRB as STARTS since set. When there are no trouble codes stored in memory, DRB will display "NO TROUBLE CODES FOUND" and reset counter will show "STARTS since clear = XXX".
