Default Can I get engine error codes from DIC on C6

My question is if there is a way to access the engine error codes on the c6. I can get them from my C5 on the DIC by a series of dash button/key manipulations, but I don't know how or if it can be done with the C6. My Z06 engine light keeps going on. I go to the dealer and the cat converter is tripping a code. They replaced it once and now say it is a software issue they are working on. Knowing the code would save me going to dealer every several mos to have them reset it until a more permanent fix is available.

If the code only happens every now and then it's EZ to reset. Just pull the ECM fuse (clearly marked on the fuse box lid), wait a few seconds, and replace. The code will disappear.

This happens often on cars with headers.

You need a code reader to get those codes.

They eliminated DIC code reading in the C6!
