by the CONFIRMED icon .

Pending Codes are only reported
if a problem occurs during the
current or last completed drive
cycle . Pending Codes do not nec-
essarily indicate a faulty compo-
nent or system . Pending Codes
convert to Confirmed Trouble
Codes when an emissions prob-
lem persists long enough to be
considered a real problem, not
an anomaly . Pending Codes are
indicated by a PENDING icon .
Permanent Codes are special
confirmed codes. Permanent
Codes began being reported by
vehicles beginning around 2010,
so they are not supported by
every vehicle. While Confirmed
Codes can be erased by the
tool, Permanent Codes cannot .
Permanent Codes are erased by
the vehicle when the vehicle has
determined the fault is no longer
present . Permanent Codes are
indicated by a PERMANENT icon .
