In automotive parlance it means, "You are in the midst of a cluster f**k and this is how this particular device reports the error when it doesn't know exactly what is happening."
Generally speaking two issues create a large number of error codes in any system - defective control units and circuit/power deficiencies/oddities. Now you have to take that statement with a grain of salt and a grin. An intermittent issue can cause a power/circuit issue that wasn't intentionally designed to occur. Difficult to write a tech manual around "What can happen if something weird occurs:..." And then obviously if a control unit begins going south all bets are off on what codes will be spit out.
The point of the informational sentence is, "We don't have a friggin' clue, we didn't design the system to have this problem. Make your best guess by following what the actual problem is and don't chase wild geese trying to fix a code that doesn't represent the actual symptom(s)."
Welcome to my world.
