With Scan Tool

DTC Clearance (for ABS)

WARNING: When performing a driving test, select a safe place where there is neither any frame nor any traffic accident possibility and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.

The DTCs in EBCM memory are erased in one of two ways:
- SUZUKI scan tool "Clear DTCs" selection.
- Ignition cycle default.

These two methods are detailed.
Be sure to verify proper system operation and absence of DTCs when the clearing procedure is completed.
The EBCM will not permit DTC clearing until all DTCs have been displayed. Also, DTCs cannot be cleared by disconnecting the EBCM, disconnecting the battery cables or turning the ignition switch to "LOCK" (except on an ignition cycle default).

SUZUKI Scan Tool Method
1. With ignition switch OFF, connect SUZUKI scan tool to data link connector (DLC).
2. Turn ignition switch to "ON" position.
3. Erase DTC according to instructions displayed on scan tool. Refer to scan tool operator's manual for further details.
4. After completing the clearance, turn ignition switch off and disconnect scan tool from data link connector.
