I need to see if any DTC's are set for the body control module on my '13 GS. Should help me narrow down a problem with 'auto unlock'.

My 2013 GS now requires me to press the 'Unlock' button before I can open the door from inside. I used to be able to just press the door button to get out.

Apparently the NAV doesn't think there is a disk in there.
