System Readiness Test (SRT): Description
System Readiness Test (SRT) codes indicate whether self-diagnostic tests for non-continuously monitored components have been completed or are incomplete. Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) tests of the On-Board Diagnostic II (OBD-II) type emission systems may become the legal requirements in some states/areas. All SRT codes must be set, or complete, prior to performing an I/M test. See SETTING SRT CODES procedure.
If diagnostic information is erased or battery is disconnected for a prolonged period of time, vehicle must be driven in the manner prescribed to set all SRT codes. See Figure. SRT codes are set after component self-diagnosis has been performed one or more times. SRT codes are set whether component diagnosis is good or bad, and whether or not diagnosis is performed in consecutive trips.
