Readiness Monitors
Mode 1 displays available monitor information.
The OBDII system has a series of systems that run
self-tests. These systems or components have to be
made ready by either turning on the ignition or
manipulating the system in some other manner. This
is called drive cycle.
Each system requires specific vehicle drive cycle and
operating requirements to take place before the
monitor self-check will run. OBDII systems require
one monitor for current systems, or two monitors for
older systems, are ready before testing can begin.
If the system is ready, no further action is required.
If the system is not ready, a drive cycle may need to
be performed for that system.
Use the following procedure to verify the system is
ready to be monitored.
