Introduction
Description: Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Trouble Codes are manufacturer-specific Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) created to identify issues within a vehicle's systems. When a fault is detected, these codes trigger the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). The Innova SDS43 can read these codes and clear them after the necessary repairs are completed.
Benefits: With support for OEM Trouble Codes, the Innova SDS43 allows technicians to diagnose manufacturer-specific problems accurately and clear codes post-repair, ensuring the vehicle’s systems return to normal operation.
