DTC Set Condition
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mitsubishi Galant. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
If the multi-center display ceases communicating once (i.e. bus off) and then returns to it, the multi-center display will not communicate for three minutes immediately after that point. This three-minute period is called "Penalty mode." Immediately after the multi-center display returns to communication, the DTC is set.
