You sure thats really a code, or not just left in memory and never cleared, I suggest clear the memory and then test it again, it may then be gone.

These are the pins you need to connect using a wire for more than 10 seconds to clear the codes. You should hear 5 audible beeps to let you know it has worked.

Yeah just a piece of wire. I pulled a fan out of my computer and butchered the wires from it. Worked well.
It has connections at both ends that sat on the pins nicely.

Turn the keys to ON where the dash lights come on but do not start the car.

Turn the keys to the ON position. ACC is the accessory position not Air Con. ON is the next indent after ACC position but before the ignition/start position.
You must have the wires connected for about 10 seconds or so while the keys are in the ON position. You will clearly hear 5 beeps if you are successful.
