NO: the DTC can not help you finding the problem.

2. IF it is flashing and the flash is 0.8 seconds ON and 0.8 seconds OFF, this means that you should have a DTC stored. Please recheck. GO TO DIAGNOSTIC STRATEGIES for Diagnostic Check, and if you find the same problem replace the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
