PCM Reset Mode

The PCM reset mode provides a means for the NGS to command the PCM to clear all DTCs. When resetting the powertrain control module, a DTC P1000 will be set in the powertrain control module until all OBD II system or components have been monitored during OBD II drive cycle.

The following lists what happens during a PCM Reset:
- clears the DTCs
- clears the Freeze Frame Data

- resets the status of the OBD II System Monitors
- sets the DTC P1000
