DTC Charts

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE: Network DTCs (U-codes) are often a result of intermittent concerns such as faulty wiring or low battery voltage occurrences. Additionally, vehicle service procedures such as module reprogramming will often set network DTCs. Replacing a module to resolve a network DTC is unlikely to resolve the concern. To prevent repeat network DTC concerns, inspect all network wiring, especially connectors. Test the vehicle battery, refer to BATTERY, MOUNTING AND CABLES .
NOTE: Some modules on this vehicle utilize a 5-character DTC followed by a 2-character failure type code. The failure type code provides information about specific fault conditions such as opens, or shorts to ground. Continuous Memory DTCs have an additional 2-character DTC status code suffix to assist in determining DTC history.
