The Read Codes function retrieves Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from the
vehicle’s computer module(s). This function can be performed with the KOEO
or KOER. These codes cause the computer to illuminate the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) when an emission-related or driveability fault occurs. The
MIL is also known as the “service engine soon” or “check engine” lamp.
The GM Enhanced reads DTC’s from the engine or powertrain module (ENG),
Transmission Module (Trans), or Transfer Case Module (XFER).
