  1. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no load (in park or neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
  2. Drive the vehicle at a speed between 25 - 55 mph (40 - 88 km/h) for at least 5 minutes.
  3. Drive the vehicle at about 55 mph (88 km/h) with an engine speed of 2,700 rpm or less for at least 5 seconds.
  4. Decelerate with the throttle fully closed for at least 2 seconds.
    • If the EVAP monitor runs instead of the HO2S monitor, turn the engine off, then restart it, and the HO2S monitor will restart.
    • If you have difficulty duplicating the DTC, retest after turning off electrical components such as the audio system and A/C, and try a different gear position.
    • Drive the vehicle in this manner only if the traffic regulations and ambient conditions allow.
