Default Diagnostic Codes

Can anyone tell me what the following codes are

P31D5
P31E3

i think they are related to my aftermarket exhaust and they are causing me to get a fail on the vehicle inspection. The car is running fine but I don’t know what these codes are?

I found this for you from another post:

Just installed Fabspeed Valvetronic on a 2021 C8 and we keep getting an SES light
DTC code P31D5: valve re-learn failure
The valves seem to open and close fine when the modes are changed, but the error light does not want to go away, we did the re-learn procedure a few times now with no luck

Yes I found the codes D5 is Valve 1 and E3 is valve 2 not closing properly
I am going to install some valve simulators and that should correct the problem.

But these aftermarket exhausts, should have included them in their original packaging because it would save a lot of headaches and extra labor and costs.
