Before following the instructions, my car's OBD2 system was not ready and I failed smog test as a result. This ultimately led to me failing the smog test at the station. However, after following the instructions provided, all the OBD2 codes were cleared and I was able to pass the smog test with ease. I am extremely grateful for the help and want to express my sincerest appreciation. Thank you so much, and may God bless you.

IT WORKED!!!! OMG IT WORKED!!!! I failed (incomplete test in Colorado) my emissions test 4 times, after recently getting a new battery and alternator in my 2011 Chrysler Town and Country. I could get all the monitors in "ready" status except the damn O2 sensor. I did the recommended drive cycle for Chrysler at least 10 times to no avail. I got up early on a Saturday morning and did this on I-25 in Denver, and besides all the other drivers looking at me like I was crazy driving that slow on the interstate, (you'd be surprised just how many people are on the roads 6am on a Saturday in Denver) it worked on the first try. I passed my emissions test later that day with all the monitors in "ready" status. THANK YOU!!!

@@RANDOMFIX u da man. So here's exactly what I did. 2002 GMC Envoy. Cold start then a 10 min warm up. Drove on the street 40 - 50 mph with stop lights along the way for about 15 mins. I was stuck at a standstill at a train for about 5 mins. Then I got on the highway and got up to about 65 mph then up to 75mph with a solid 5 mins of 70 mph. Turned around headed to the test station. As I approached my exit I decelerated from 65mph without braking thru the exit ramp off to the street all the way down to 1 mph. I say 1 bcuz the truck never fully stopped. Then I got up to 35 - 40 mph normal area speed limit, pulled into a gas station and plugged the reader. It showed cat and O2 ready while evap was not ready. Cool. I went 2 minutes away directly to the test station. I was in line for about 15 mins and I passed. The tester didn't turn my truck off and restart it. Sometimes that's critical to know because the restart can bring the engine light back on. The first time I went in November the tester shut off and restarted my truck, the engine light didn't come on but I just want to point this out about the testers possibly restarting vehicles. That's why I went straight to the test station when I saw the sensors we're ready. I didn't even think to keep track of the total miles I traveled but it is 11 miles, 26 mins to the test station from my start point. I was probably on the highway for a total of 15 mins max. Thanks again!

On the Cat Conv sensor at INC from the recent replacement of the battery on my 2003 Mercedes Benz E320, I did everything you suggested including 14 times the drive cycle but couldn't clear it. In fact, I even tried the hold for 3mins @3000 RPM per your other video for my E320 and that didn't work neither. Then I tried what the Poway Smog Station people suggested "drive cruising at about 55 mph for a while" so my wife and I cruised from San Marcos to Temecula wine country to Hemet. Checked the car while stopping to get food there and sure enough. It cleared!! Smog passed today!!

That's what I just needed to do. If you suddenly have codes popping up, ask yourself this. "Has my battery gone completely dead recently or did I change the battery myself" If yes, drive your car through the manufacturer specific, driving recycling procedure to re-boot your computer. A lot of things can be fixed by just idling from a cold start for a few minutes while turning on every electricity item in the car. AC, rear defroster, radio, lights, etc.

2004 Sentra worked perfectly fine-- I have modifications, so didn't want to wake my neighbors-- I drove two blocks away to complete the idling, no problems. I pulled up-hill to hit over 65 mph, then the car decelerated much quicker when I let off the accelerator (going slightly up hill I mean), down to around 20 mph-- it was two lanes so just hit my hazards as I slowed just in case, but no one was around anyway. I did that around 3 times, idled some more, turned off the car and removed the key for 10 seconds, turned it on and idled before checking I/M readiness-- 6 of 7 were complete/ready except for the evap but I passed my test anyway. The tech did have a laptop connected to my car's computer for maybe 10 mins, so they might have forced the test somehow?! Maybe that's why some don't like doing it-- it's time consuming. Just a thought. @RANDOMFIX, I used south-bound Skyline Blvd by Fort Funston-- if you ever need to complete the task in SF again. It was perfect there.

Thanks for the informative video. Having said that, emission test relying on OBD2 monitors has added stress to car owners whose OBD2 monitors have shown to be not ready when their cars are taken to the emission test centers. Now, they have to perform all kinds of procedures, some are difficult especially in cities with heavy traffic, to get the monitors ready. If the monitors are not ready, let's say just couple of them, car owners should have the option to get their cars tested through I/M 240 dynamometer test which actually measures the pollutants coming from the car's emission. Local governments who require emission test and emission test centers opted not to do this anymore for cars equipped with OBD2 technology. I'm not exactly sure why they resorted to that, maybe because it takes longer or the equipment required for I/M240 are way too expensive to purchase and to maintain. Emission test is no longer an emission test if the only option is testing OBD2 monitors. It should be called emission monitors test or test for a car's emission technology but it should no longer be called emission test per se. OBD2 testing is efficient and clean, yes, but give the car owners an option to get their cars' emission tested through I/M 240 or another method that truly test pollutants on cars' emission when their OBD monitors are showing not ready especially if they are not throwing any codes.
@RANDOMFIX

You have a lot of great point about how smog test has basic turned it a technology readiness test and to answer you question, in my opinion it's all about money and second they don't want tail pipe switching. Tail pipe switch is basic have one vehicle on the dyno and another healthy vehicle with a gas analyser in the tailpipe. One other point I want to mention is you can do the same the same thing for OBD2 ports, where you use the obd2 of a healthy vehicle with all monitors ready and the state will actually let the vehicle pass but what most people don't realize is the obd2 system has the vehicle number on record. So once the state sees a different Vin number they send spies to smog shop with a modified vehicle that not suppose to pass. If the shop passes the vehicle they will get a huge fine ($300,000 for California) Thanks again for sharing you thoughts!!!
@johnsmith-sk1ep
@johnsmith-sk1ep 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, in nevada, the test is basically an obd status check. There's no emissions test at all except for older vehicles, afaik. Some test stations have the dyno, but most don't. What I've been complaining to my state reps is that if my truck was built in 95 it would be an emissions test but since it was built in 97 I have to pass annual obd test. My state reps just assume that obd means no emissions which is pretty ignorant. There are so many different ways obd can fail that have nothing to do with emissions, such as low voltage, or I read the other day his vehicle was completing the drive cycle because the engine wasn't heated enough. I want my state to give me a choice, but they won't have it. I want them to prove my truck is emitting pollutants and they won't do that either.

Sam, This is for a 1998 ford but make useful for you. Ford Motor Cars Drive Cycle Description of OBDII Drive Cycle The following procedure is designed to execute and complete the OBDII monitors and to clear the Ford P1000, I/M readiness code. To complete a specific monitor for repair verification, follow steps 1 through 4, then continue with the step described by the appropriate monitor found under the "OBDII Monitor Exercised" column. When the ambient air temperature is outside 4.4 to 37.8°C (40 to 100° F), or the altitude is above 2438 meters (8000 feet), the EVAP monitor will not run. If the P1000 code must be cleared in these conditions, the PCM must detect them once (twice on some applications) before the EVAP monitor can be "bypassed" and the P1000 cleared. The Evap "bypassing" procedure is described in the following drive cycle.The OBDII Drive Cycle will be performed using a scan tool. Consult the instruction manual for each described function. NOTE: A detailed description of a Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Reset is found in this section, refer to the table of contents.Drive Cycle Recommendations:Most OBDII monitors will complete more readily using a "steady foot" driving style during cruise or acceleration modes. Operating the throttle in a "smooth" fashion will minimize the time required for monitor completion.Fuel tank level should be between 1/2 and 3/4 fill with 3/4 fill being the most desirable.The Evaporative Monitor can only operate during the first 30 minutes of engine operation. When executing the procedure for this monitor, stay in part throttle mode and drive in a smooth fashion to minimize "fuel slosh".WARNING STRICT OBSERVANCE OF POSTED SPEED LIMITS AND ATTENTION TO DRIVING CONDITIONS ARE MANDATORY WHEN PROCEEDING THROUGH THE FOLLOWING DRIVE CYCLES.For best results, follow each of the following steps as accurately as possible: complete drive cycle reference OBDII Monitor ExercisedDrive Cycle ProcedurePurpose of Drive Cycle ProcedureDrive Cycle Preparation1. Install scan tool. Turn key on with the engine off. Cycle key off, then on. Select appropriate Vehicle & Engine qualifier. Clear all DTC's/ Perform a PCM Reset.Bypasses engine soak timer. Resets OBDII Monitor status.2. Begin to monitor the following PIDs: ECT, EVAPDC, FLI (if available) and TP MODE. Start vehicle WITHOUT returning to Key Off.3. Idle vehicle for 15 seconds. Drive at 64 Km/h (40 MPH) until ECT is at least 76.7°C (170° F).Prep for Monitor Entry4. Is IAT within 4.4 to 37.8°C (40 to 100° F)? If Not, complete the following steps but, note that step 14 will be required to "bypass " the Evap monitor and clear the P1000.Engine warm-up and provide IAT input to the PCM.HEGO5. Cruise at 64 Km/h (40 MPH) for up to 4 minutes.Executes the HEGO monitor.EVAP6. Cruise at 72 to 104 Km/h (45 to 65 MPH) for 10 minutes (avoid sharp turns and hills) Note, to initiate the monitor: TP MODE should =PT, EVAPDC must be >75%, and FLI must be between 15 and 85%Executes the EVAP Monitor (If IAT is within 4.4 to 37.8° (40 to 100°F))Catalyst7. Drive in stop and go traffic conditions. Include five different constant cruise speeds, ranging from 40 to 72 Km/h (25 to 45 MPH) over a 10 minute period.Executes the Catalyst Monitor.EGR8. From a stop, accelerate to 72 Km/h (45 MPH) at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. Repeat 3 times.Executes the EGR Monitor.SEC AIR/CCM (Engine)9. Bring the vehicle to a stop. Idle with transmission in drive (neutral for M/T) for 2 minutes.Executes the ISC portion of the CCM.CCM (Trans)10. For M/T, accelerate from 0 to 80 Km/h (o to 50 MPH), continue to step 11. For A/T, from a stop and in overdrive, moderately accelerate to 80 Km/h (50 MPH) and cruise for at least 15 seconds. Stop vehicle and repeat without overdrive to 64 Km/h (40 MPH) cruising for at least 30 seconds. While at 64 Km/h (40 MPH) , activate overdrive and accelerate to 80 Km/h (50 MPH) and cruise for at least 15 seconds. Stop for at least 20 seconds and repeat step 10 five times.Executes the transmission portion of the CCM.Misfire & Fuel Monitors11. From a stop, accelerate to 104 Km/h (65 MPH). Decelerate at closed throttle until 64 Km/h (40 MPH) (no brakes). Repeat this 3 times.Allows learning for the misfire monitor.Readiness Check12. Access the ON-Board System Readiness (OBDII monitor status) function on the scan tool. Determine whether all non-continuous monitors have completed. If not, go to step 13.Determines if any monitor has not completed.Pending Code Check and Evap Monitor "Bypass" Check13. With the scan tool, check for pending codes. Conduct normal repair procedures for any pending code concern. Otherwise, rerun any incomplete monitor. Note: if the EVAP monitor is not complete AND IAT was out of the 4.4 to 37.8° C (40 to 100° F) temperature range in step #4, or the altitude is over 2438 m. (8000 ft.), the Evap "bypass" procedure must be followed. Proceed to step 14.Determines if a pending code is preventing the clearing of P1000.Evap Monitor "Bypass"14. Park vehicle for a minimum of 8 hours. Repeat steps 2 through 12. DO NOT REPEAT STEP 1.Allow the "bypass" counter to increment to two.

You're the best thing since sliced bread!!! If I was having a child I would name it "RANDOMFIX". I have a 2008 Chevy Equinox with 50K on the odometer, took it to get a NJ Inspection and it failed, O2 & EGR not ready, I'm 57 years old and this is the first failed inspection ever, I didn't know they just use the OBD data. I read all kinds of stuff on the internet, the battery was 6 years old so I replaced, replaced the air filter (which needed it), drove 300 miles, now the EVAP as well as O2 and EGR not ready. Took it to a local mechanic, they said do a software update to the PCM, another $230 out of my pocket. Into it now for $500 and drove another 300 miles, 3 monitors still not ready. I'm pulling my hair out, my 30 day inspection extension was up tomorrow and then I find your video and read the comments so thought this just might work. I also checked the one out for GM cars so started the car up after sitting all night, ran the AC, made sure headlights were on and rear defroster on, set the timer on my phone and made my way to the NJ Turnpike, got in the slow lane cruising around 58 - 60 set the timer on my phone and waited after it went off till I had nobody behind me and could take foot off the gas, also had a nice long shoulder which I entered, when I got to about 20 mph used the hand brake to slow down to about 5, cheeked my OBDII and BINGO, every monitor on except EVAC which is good for NJ. I drove home, took a leak then off to get my inspection. I can't thank you enough, my wife and I both got laid off and we need this vehicle, I was having nightmares of having to junk a perfectly fine and reliable vehicle to buy a used one I can't afford that might bring tons of trouble. This new way of testing is BS, after I failed they gave me pamphlet that said 40% of the vehicles fail, to me that means there is something wrong with their system. BTW, I just ordered a new gas cap, hopefully that will deal with the EVAP. Thanks again, you don't know how much you saved me in desperate times. One other thought, isn't it ironic that people are driving hundreds of useless miles creating pollution just to pass a pollution test, kind of sad when you think of it.

Yeah -- and not to speak of all the pollution & waste that comes from trashing a totally good-running car (if you can't get it to pass the test), and having to buy a new one (that had to be built, with all the materials, energy, etc. that went into building it)! Totally a waste -- and just more money in the corporations' pockets! Bad for us regular people, and for the planet!

Thank you for this video. I have a 2012 manual fiat 500. I’ve had such a hard time passing smog. All O2 sensor related. At this point I’ve replaced both o2 sensors and the fuse in control of them, but the down stream one still isn’t recognized by the system after lots of driving city and highway. I just attempted your suggestion a few runs on and off the highway, only allowing downshifting compression to slow me on the off ramp. But it started getting congested and too hard to continue. I’ll wait until traffic is over and try again. 🤞your suggestion works.
