N55. What is this?

I have the JB3 and the BT can tool and I keep throwing a code. Today i read it and it goes 30mph 10mph 0mph 60mph and then it stays there until the blinkers flash 4 times. Is the code 3106? If so what is this code??

A) Blinkers will flash twice to let you know the codes have been read.
B) The speedo will indicate how many codes are stored or pending by moving to that digit. 0mph=0,
10mph = 1, 20mph = 2, 80mph = 8, 120mph = 12 ( or C), 150mph = 15(or F), etc. So if the speedo moves
to 30 then you have 3 codes pending.
C) The flashers will again blink twice and then the speedo will start to display the first code one digit at a
time. Each code consists of 4 numbers 0-15, or 0-F for those familiar with HEX notation. Write each
block of 4 digits down on a piece to look up the descriptions later.
D) After 4 digits are displayed the blinkers will flash twice letting you know it is about to start reading out
the next code.
E) After reading out all codes the blinkers will flash four times indicating the CT has left code reading
mode. If no codes were stored you will see the flashers blink twice followed by the flashers blinking four
times with no codes displayed in between.
F) To find the code descriptions first convert the numbers 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 to A, B, C, D, E, or F.
This is known as HEX notation. For example code 2,10,11,12 is converted to 2,A,B,C.

Yes. I followed those steps. I need to know what the code means since the BT tool doesn't have a manual with a list of codes.

That's for the BavTech scan tool. I'm using the BMS CAN tool.
