Inspection/Maintenance System Check: Procedure

  1. Perform DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK - ENGINE CONTROLS  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If DTC or driveability problems were repaired using Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls, go to step  3. If no DTC or driveability problems were repaired using Diagnostic System Check - Engine Controls, go to next step.
  2. Check for applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSB) for software updates that may prevent Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) readiness. Perform any reprogramming or repairs indicated by TSBs. If reprogramming or repair service was required, see INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE COMPLETE SYSTEM SET PROCEDURE . If reprogramming or repair service is not required, go to next step.
  3. Using scan tool, observe I/M SYSTEM STATUS display. If more than one test indicates a NO status, see INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE COMPLETE SYSTEM SET PROCEDURE . If only one test indicates a NO status, go to appropriate I/M system set procedure for indicated system.
