Use and Care Manual
As post-repair diagnostic tool:
This function can be used (after the vehicle has
had any emission-related repairs) to confirm that
the repair has been performed successfully.
After repairs, some drive cycles are required to reset the
monitoring systems. Drive cycles vary among vehicles
and for each monitor in any particular vehicle.
Use the following procedure to check if the
repair has been done correctly:
1. Connect the Scan Tool to the vehicle's DLC and
erase the DTCs from the vehicle's computer
memory. (See 5.2 Erasing Codes)
2. After the erase procedure is performed, the status
of most monitors will be changed. Leave the Scan
Tool connected to the vehicle, and select Ready
Test from the Main Screen (See Figure 3.1).
3. Keep on driving the car until the Scan T
ool notifies you
with the LED (and tone, if enabled) that the drive cycle
has been completed and the vehicle is ready, eliminating
drive cycle guesswork and confirming readiness status.
4. If the GREEN LED displays and two long beeps are
heard, there are no stored and pending DTCs that will
cause a problem during an Emissions Test at this time.
5. If the RED LED displays, your vehicle is
not ready for an Emissions Test.
