can not clear codes

Post by gunracer »

my check engine light came on today because i was messing with the fans to see how long it would take the engine temp to drop 30 degrees. (just goofing around) so i plug the intune in and no codes present. i plug my predator in there is 2. my intune can not read or delete the codes. anyone else with this problem

Its because the tool only holds a limited number of codes. A lot of the time the tools will not read a code and a real scanner will.

so whats the point of having it for both a code reader and a tuner if it will not clear the codes?

If the codes are in the unit, it'll clear them. But only Powertrain codes are in it. Any other codes from other modules aren't there and can't be read or cleared. Thats why I always recommend that anybody doing any work on their car gets an Actron or similar scanner that can read everything.

Does having a Diablosport PCM unshackle you from the Dodge "since you are past warranty, you now get a scheduled fake CEL every 2000 miles" hell?
