AD20 cannot show the specific fault code but AD20 Pro can.

Why the fault light turned on when doing diagnosis ?

Why the fault codes couldn’t be cleared, or just appear again after being cleared?

When clearing codes, please refer to the actual situations of the fault Usually there are sporadic codes and actual codes:

Sporadic codes: Normally this happens when the component works abnormally in time points, probably because of electromagnetic interference, vibration, poor contact with the wiring, and so on. Those codes could be cleared directly.
Actual codes: This happens when there are components that are failed. Before clearing those codes, make sure that you have fixed the issue. If the fault lights are on again after clearing codes, that means the faults are not fully fixed – further inspections are needed in those cases.

Why there are no lights shown on my dashboard but AD20 scanned that there are DTC codes present?

Not all the DTC codes will trigger the fault lights on the dashboard – the manufacturer will decide which fault will trigger the light and which won’t
The ECU may still not fully decide if this is a fault yet. Maybe there is electromagnetic interference or vibration that misleads the ECU. Normally in those cases, the ECU will decide if this is an actual fault after running for several cycles.
