[Diy_efi] Chrysler ODB2 / VSS question

True, type A codes are single instance problems that triggers a code &
MIL and creates a stored history code.  This history should be erasable
using an OBD scanner.  Type A codes are caused by certain severe
emission problems that only a single instance of a malfunction will
trigger the code and light as well as a stored history code.  Not sure
how the VSS ranks in priority (from A-D) or how the VSS is used with the
emissions equipment, but I doubt the lack of speed information is going
to cause a major emissions problem. YMMV, IMO

the only way the trouble code will stay after a battery reset is if the
problem is still persistent. also crhsylers later obd2 chrysler have a
code history so even when current static code are cleared there will be
a basic non violitale copy kept on the flash chip. its way more
complcated then a battery/power down code clearing clear.
