Intermittent Codes
An intermittent code is a DTC occurring intermittently and is most likely caused by defective wiring, connections or hydraulic leakage. Intermittent code indicates a failure does not exist every time PCM checks the system. Intermittent codes must be checked under conditions in which they would be set.
NOTE:
A reset counter located on Chrysler's Diagnostic Readout Box (DRB-III) scan tool, indicates number of engine starts since DTC was set. This aids in determining if DTC is hard or intermittent. If reset counter shows less than 3 engine starts, it indicates a hard code. If reset counter shows 3 or more engine starts, an intermittent code exists.
