Michael,
            I've just found this reference to DTCs or Fault Codes.

           http://www.obdii.com/dtcanatomy.html
 

            Have you noticed how logical it is....

            B = Body
            C = Chassis
            P = Powertrain       and NOT       T = Transmission
            U = Network

            They are bound to fire the guy that thought of that, he's far to straight and level to be of any use.

Regards Chris (Scotland)

                            Anatomy of the DTC

                            A DTC is made up of 5 digits. The figure below demonstrates the composition of a
                            DTC. With this information it is easier to trouble shoot a DTC without knowing the
                            description of the code.

                             

Thanks to Chris of Scotland for notifying us of the existence of this.
