Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes
Catalytic Converter Codes
NOTE:
- Do not turn the ignition switch OFF.
- When the battery negative cable is disconnected, all readiness codes are cleared.
Required condition:
Ambient temperature between 20-95�F (-7-35�C).
1. Connect the scan tool the Data Link Connector (DLC).
2. Start the engine. Hold it at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
3. Drive for approx. 10 minutes on a freeway.
4. With the A/T in D5 position, M/T in 5th gear, drive at a steady speed between 50-62 mph (80-100 km/h) for 30 seconds. And then decelerate by releasing the throttle completely for at least 5 seconds.
5. Do step 4 three times. Between each procedure, close the throttle completely for 1-2 seconds. If the engine is stopped, go to step 3 and do the procedure again.
6. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool.
EVAP Leak Monitor Codes
NOTE:
- When the battery negative cable is disconnected, all readiness codes are cleared.
- If the engine is stopped while doing the procedure between step 6 and 10, do this procedure from step 1 again.
1. Make sure the gasoline level is 60-90 % of fuel tank capacity (not full filled).
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Leave the vehicle more than eight hours.
4. Make sure the out side temperature is 20-95�F (-7-35�C).
5. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector (DLC).
6. Start the engine and drive for apporox. 15 minutes on a freeway. At the time, keep the vehicle at a steady speed between 50-71 mph (80-114 km/h) for approx. 1 minute; for three times.
7. Stop the vehicle. (Do not stop engine.)
8. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool. If the readiness code does not set, go to step 9.
9. When ambient temperature is less than 32�F (0�C), hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
10. Remove the fuel fill cap, then install the fuel fill cap.
11. After step 10, soon drive for approx. 20 minutes on a free way. At the time, keep the vehicle at a steady speed between 50-71 mph (80-114 km/h) for approx. 1 minute; for three times.
12. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool.
HO2S Monitor Code
NOTE:
- Do not turn the ignition switch OFF.
- When the battery negative cable is disconnected, all readiness codes are cleared.
Required condition:
Ambient temperature between 20-95�F (-7-35�C).
1. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector (DLC).
2. Start the engine, and hold it at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
3. Let the engine idle for 5 seconds.
4. Drive at a steady speed between 50-62 mph (80-100 km/h) for approx. 2 minutes.
5. With the A/T in D5 position, M/T in 5th gear, decelerate from 62 mph (100 km/h) by releasing the throttle completely for at least 5 seconds. If the engine is stopped, go to step 4 and do the procedure again.
6. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool.
HO2S Heater Monitor Code
NOTE: When the battery negative cable is disconnected, all readiness codes are cleared.
1. Connect the scan tool to the Data Link Connector (DLC).
2. Start the engine, and let the engine idle for 10 minutes.
3. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool.
EGR Monitor Code
NOTE:
- Do not turn the ignition switch OFF.
- When the battery negative cable is disconnected, all readiness codes are cleared.
1. Connect the scan to the Data Link Connector (DLC).
2. Start the engine and hold it at 3,000 rpm with no load (in Park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
3. Drive at a steady speed with the transmission in D5 position between 50-62 mph (80-100 km/h) for more than 10 seconds.
4. With the A/T in D5 position, M/T in 5th gear position, decelerate from 62 mph (100 km/h) by releasing the throttle completely for at least 5 seconds. If the engine is stopped, go to step 3 and do the procedure again.
5. Check for the readiness code with the scan tool.
