ERASING DTCs

10. Follow the testing and repair procedures outlined in the vehicle's
service repair manual to correct "hard" DTCs. Codes should be
addressed and eliminated in the order they were received, erasing
and retesting after each repair is made to be sure the fault was
eliminated.
ERASING DTCs
When the Scan Tool's ERASE function is used to erase DTCs
from the vehicle's on-board computer, manufacturer specific
data (where applicable) is also erased.
If you plan to take the vehicle to a service center for repair, DO NOT
erase the codes from the vehicle's computer. If the codes are erased,
valuable information that might help the technician troubleshoot the
problem will also be erased.
Erase DTC’s from the computer’s memory
as follows:
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the vehicle’s
DLC. Press ENTER
to continue.
2. Turn the ignition ON. DO NOT start the
engine.
3. Press and release ERASE
. A
confirmation message shows.
If you are sure you want to proceed, select Yes, then press
ENTER
to continue.
- If you do not want to proceed, select No, then press ENTER
to exit the erase function.
4. If you chose to erase DTCs, a “One
moment please…” message displays
while the erase function is in progress.
If the erase was successful, a
confirmation message shows. Press
SYSTEM MENU
to return to the
Chrysler Menu.
The Scan Tool can be used to erase codes for some vehicles,
while others require codes to be erased manually. If the “This
vehicle does not support this function.” screen displays,
consult the vehicle’s service repair manual for procedures to
erase DTCs.
If the erase was not successful, an advisory message shows.
Verify that the Scan Tool is properly connected to the vehicle's
DLC and that the ignition is ON. Press ENTER
to continue. If
the erase process still does not complete, turn the ignition OFF,
wait 10 seconds, then turn back ON and repeat steps 2 and 3.
