Failure Mode Effects Management (FMEM), Code 998

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1993 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

FMEM mode allows system operation when sensors fail or transmit signals that are out of normal operating range. During FMEM mode, PCM substitutes a mid-range signal for defective sensor while continuing to monitor sensor. If faulty sensor's signals return to normal operating range, PCM will use those signals. A Code 998 will be displayed when FMEM mode is in effect.
