Is that an ABS code ? A special reader is required to pull the codes for it.
If ya take the time to search, there's probably a listings of the ABS codes somewhere on the site.

our diy section has code meanings but codes are clues not a diagnosis and often lead you astray!
Multi warning lights just mean car isn't sure whats wrong
give us symptoms and what happened just before this started and we can go from there

ECM is the cars brain

Yes had a shop pull the ABS\VSA codes from the car. Tried to reset them and they came right back on.
