Diagnostic boundary

A diagnostic trouble code reports that a monitored test failed. It does not prove one specific part is bad, and manufacturer logic can add vehicle-specific conditions.

Do not clear intermittent cam signal faults without a heat and vibration check; they can cause stalls or no-starts.
