Using On-Board Diagnostics

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Chevrolet Corvette, 1999 Chevrolet Corvette, and 1998 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Turn ignition on, engine off. Press RESET button to acknowledge any warning messages that may be present. Press OPTIONS button (switch 4) on Driver Information Center (DIC) and hold. While holding OPTIONS button, press FUEL button (switch 1) 4 times within 10 seconds. System will enter automatic display mode.

In automatic display mode, each system module will be displayed on DIC followed by DTCs that exist in that system. If no DTCs exist, DIC will display NO CODES for that system. If DTCs exist, each DTC will be displayed for 3 seconds followed by a one second pause. If Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) cannot communicate with any system, DIC will display NO COMM for that system. For diagnosis of no communication fault, see appropriate BODY CONTROL MODULES article. At any time during automatic display mode, manual display feature can be activated by pressing any DIC button except E/M (switch 5). When all systems have been checked in automatic mode, IPC will display NO MORE CODES for 2 seconds, and will then enter manual mode.

When manual mode is entered, DIC will display MANUAL DIAGNOSTICS for 2 seconds or until any DIC button except E/M (switch 5) is pressed. DIC will then display first system and number of DTCs set in that system, and wait for further instructions. Using DIC buttons, move through system diagnostics as necessary. See DIC BUTTON DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTIONS  table. Note power mirror related codes for Right Door Control Module (RDCM) and Left Door Control Module (LDCM) and perform appropriate diagnostic test. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX  table.

When E/M button (switch 5) on DIC is pressed at any time, IPC will exit diagnostics mode. On-board diagnostics will also be exited automatically if no DIC buttons are pressed for longer than 60 seconds. If no DTCs exist, perform system operation check. See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK  under TROUBLE SHOOTING.
