SYSTEM READINESS TEST STATUS

PURPOSE

The Readiness function (also referred to as I/M
Readiness or I/M Flags) indicates if a full diagnostic
check has been "Completed" (is "Ready") for each
non-continuous monitor. Enhanced I/M State Emis-
sion Programs will use the Readiness status (Codes)
to see if the vehicle is ready for OBD-II testing.
"Incomplete" (Not Ready) codes will be one of the
triggers for I/M failure.

OVERVIEW

The ECM monitors the following main diagnosis
items and records whether the evaluation was com-
pleted or is incomplete. The Readiness Codes are
established for the I/M programs, thereby confirming
that the vehicles have not been tampered with by
erasing the diagnostic trouble code(s) (DTCs) before
I/M testing. The Readiness Codes and DTCs can be
reset by disconnecting the battery or by erasing the
codes with a scan tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III sub
assembly). For this reason, all the Readiness Codes
must be displayed "Complete" before I/M testing.

When the monitors run and complete, the scan tool
MB991958 (M.U.T.-III sub assembly) will display the
Readiness Codes as "Complete" (General Scan
Tools display as "Ready"). When the vehicle is oper-
ating normally and the OBD-II Drive Cycle is carried
out, the Readiness Codes will be set as "Complete"
on the first drive cycle. For DTCs requiring two drive
cycles to detect a fault, the second drive cycle is
required to set the Readiness Codes as "Complete"
if a fault is detected during the first drive cycle. If the
fault is still there after the second drive cycle, a DTC
will be set.

• Catalyst: P0420

• Evaporative system: P0442, P0455, P0456

• Linear air-fuel ratio sensor: P0133

• Linear air-fuel ratio sensor heater: P0031, P0053

• Heated oxygen sensor: P0139, P0140

• Heated oxygen sensor heater: P0037

• EGR system: P0401

After all the Readiness Codes are displayed as
"Complete", the technician is assured that any DTCs
related to the monitor will be displayed if the system
has a problem. That is why some State's I/M pro-
grams require the Readiness Code as "Complete"
before they check for DTCs.
NOTE: After a repair is made for a DTC, the techni-
cian should drive the OBD-II Drive Cycle checking
that the scan tool MB991958 (M.U.T.-III Sub Assem-
bly) displays all the Readiness Codes as "Complete".

Inspection
conditions

• Engine coolant temperature: More than 0°C (32°F) <Manifold absolute pressure sensor

monitor>

• Fuel amount at engine start: Less than 80 % <Fuel tank pressure sensor monitor>

Test
procedure

1. Start the engine with all the accessories switched OFF.
2. Let the engine idle at the engine speed less than 1,000 r/min for 15 seconds. (During the

monitor)

3. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK" (OFF) position.
4. Start the engine and do Steps 1 to 3 again.
5. Confirm that the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is not output.
