Did that show up right after returning it to stock? I think that is the code that yo get when there have not been enough drive cycles after a tune change.

yes it showed up after returning to stock
it has been there for a while i did drive around for some time it is still there i have researched it on here i was just curious if it would affect anything on my warranty but i dont think so as i have read it can also be set off by unplugging the battery so i think/hope i wont affect my warranty
i have read i can take anywhere from 50-500 miles to clear it depending on driving habits

Ok, I thought that was the one. They won't do an inspection if that code is there. Just don't know how it might affect transmission work.

ya i got all of the info on inspections i was just curious if they go to scan my OBDII for codes if that comes up it will affect my warranty hopefully some one else will chime in??? if they do say anything about it i will just say the battery was disconnected recently for a stereo install or something along those lines

thanks for all the help Bluejay

Yeah, as a careful owner, you were performing normal maintenance by disconnecting and cleaning the battery terminals, right?
