4.3 Retrieving I/M Readiness Status

IMPORTANT: I/M Readiness function is used to check the
operations of the Emission System on OBD2 compliant vehicles. It
is an excellent function to use prior to having a vehicle inspected
for compliance to a state emissions program.

An I/M Readiness Status result of “NO” does not necessarily
indicate that the vehicle being tested will fail the state I/M
inspection. For some states, one or more such monitors may be
allowed to be “Not Ready” to pass the emissions inspection.

“YES”--All monitors supported on the vehicle have completed

their diagnostic testing and the MIL light is not on.\

“NO”--At least one monitor supported on the vehicle has not

completed its diagnostic testing, and (or) the ―Check

Engine‖( MIL) light is on.

“READY”—Indicates that a particular monitor being checked

has completed its diagnostic testing.

“Not RDY(NOT READY)”—Indicates that a particular monitor

being checked has not completed its diagnostic testing.

“N/A”—The monitor is not supported on that vehicle.

“→”-- A flashing Right Arrow indicates additional information is

available on the next screen.
