Reading and erasing diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2007 Volvo V70, 2006 Volvo V70, 2005 Volvo V70, 2004 Volvo V70, and 2003 Volvo V70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can be read off and erased using this function. The on-board diagnostic (OBD) system can identify 275 different faults in the form of diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

This function can also be used to read off whether the fault is still present (permanent) or whether it has now ceased (intermittent) after the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) has been stored.

Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can only be erased once all the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been read off at least once.
