Abstract
A system according to the principles of the present disclosure includes a first reprogramming identification module and a first diagnostic module. The first reprogramming identification module identifies when a first control module of a vehicle is reprogrammed. The first diagnostic module sets a first diagnostic trouble code (DTC) when the first control module is reprogrammed and selectively clears the first DTC when an instruction to clear a second DTC stored in a second control module of the vehicle is received.
