DTC Type Definitions
There are 4 DTC types: Type A, B, C, and D. Among these DTCs, type A and B DTCs are related to emission whereas type C and D DTCs are related to items other than emission.
Action taken when DTC sets – Type A
The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator light (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
The ECM records the operating conditions when the diagnostic runs and fails. The ECM stores this information in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records.
Action taken when DTC sets – Type B
The ECM illuminates the MIL after 2 consecutive driving cycles when the diagnostic runs and fails.
The ECM records the operating conditions when the diagnostic runs and fails. The first time the diagnostic runs and fails, the ECM stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure in 2 consecutive driving cycles, the ECM records the operating conditions at the time of failure, stores this information in the Freeze Frame, and updates the Failure Records.
Condition for clearing the MIL/DTC – Type A or Type B
The ECM turns OFF the MIL after 3 consecutive driving cycles when the diagnostic runs and does not fail.
A current DTC is cleared when the diagnostic runs and passes.

Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.
