Pulling Codes on a 98 STS

This brings up a question that I have had, can I run diagnostics at highway speeds? Does the diagnostic process, do anything that could cause a problem while the car is moving or will the RSS diagnostic not work if the suspension is moving?

True, True! :lol: Sometimes when I see I the Check Engine Light, I want to know what the code is right away! :lol:

Officer, that wasn't my cell phone that caused the accident, that was a pad and pencil, I was writing down computer diagnostic codes! Honest! :blink:

Try this....

DTC display; 1998-2004 Seville and other model years with 3 switches on the RH side of DIC.

Use the 3 switches located to the right (LH drive cars) of the Driver Information Center (DIC) to activate and respond to the OBD prompts on the DIC.

ON/OFF = YES

INFO RESET = NO

INFO DOWN or INFO UP = manual toggle

Ignition ON, acknowledge any warning messages; press ON/OFF and INFO UP together for 2 to 3 seconds. Everything in front of you lights up for 4 or 5 seconds, then you will see:

Display shows "ALL?"

Answering YES will display "ALL CODES?"

Answering YES will run automatic test sequence and display codes, if any. Systems and codes will scroll faster than I am able to read them and write them; not to worry.

"ALL CLEAR CODES?" will display at the end of the automatic test. If you are satisfied you have the information you need, answer YES to clear/erase all error codes.

Answering "ALL?" with INFO DOWN will toggle systems test manually in order.

Answering "ALL?" with INFO UP will toggle system test manually in reverse order.

Press INFO RESET to reset DIC to "ALL?" to start again.

Ignition OFF to exit.

SYSTEMS: (as of 1998)

ABS (Antilock Brake System)

AMP (Amplifier)

DDM (Door Driver Module)

DIM (Dash Integration Module)

IPC (Instrument Panel Cluster)

IPM (Instrument Panel Module)

IRC (Integrated Radio Module)

PCM (Powertrain Control Module)

RFA (Remote Function Actuation)

RIM (Rear Integration Module)

SDM (Sensing and Diagnostic Module) Includes airbag crash data. Under RF seat

VTD (Vehicle Theft Deterrent)

MSM (Memory Seat Module)

TTM (Tilt/Telescoping Module)

RSS (Road Sensing Suspension)

Do you have any symptoms of a problem. The first thing I would do is clean your battery cables really good especially the positive cable, do a search on how to do it under my name. Once you have the battery cleaned up, see if these codes come back... Mike
