Checking Monitor Status

The purpose of the monitor result (mode 06) is to allow access to the results for on-board diagnostic monitoring tests of specific components/systems that are not continuously monitored Examples are catalyst, evaporative emission (EVAP) and thermostat.

The monitor result allows the OBD II scan tool to display the monitor status, test value, minimum test limit and maximum test limit. These data are displayed after the vehicle has been driven to run the monitor

When the test value is not between the minimum test limit and maximum test limit, the ECM (PCM) interprets this as a malfunction When the component is not malfunctioning, if the difference of the test value and test limit is very small, the component will malfunction in the near future Perform the following instruction to view the monitor status. Although this instruction reference the Lexus/Toyota diagnostic tester, it can be checked using a generic OBD II scan tool. Refer to your scan tool operator's manual for specific procedures.

PERFORM MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN
1. Connect the intelligent tester or Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the power switch ON (IG).
3. Turn the tester ON.
4. Clear DTCs (see DTC CHECK/CLEAR ).
5. Run the vehicle in accordance with the applicable drive pattern described in READINESS MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN (see READINESS MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN ). Do not turn the power switch OFF.
  NOTE: The test results will be lost if the power switch is turned off.
ACCESS MONITOR RESULT
1. Select the following menus:
  Intelligent tester - Select: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / MONITOR INFO / MONITOR RESULT. The monitor status appears after the component name.
  - INCMP: The component has not been monitored yet.
  - PASS: The component is functioning normally.
  - FAIL: The component is malfunctioning.
  Techstream - Select: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Monitor / Result. The monitor status appears after the component name
  - Pass: The component is functioning normally.
  - Fail: The component is malfunctioning
2. Confirm that the component is either PASS (Pass) or FAIL (Fail).
3. Select the component and press ENTER. The accuracy test value appears if the monitor status is either PASS (Pass) or FAIL (Fail).
CHECK COMPONENT STATUS
1. Compare the test value with the minimum test limit (MIN LIMIT) and maximum test limit (MAX LIMIT).
2. If the test value is between the minimum test limit and maximum test limit, the component is functioning normally. If not, the component is malfunctioning. The test value is usually significantly higher or lower than the test limit. If the test value is on the borderline of the test limit, the component will malfunction in the near future
  HINT:
  
  The monitor result might on rare occasions be PASS (Pass) even if the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is illuminated. This indicates the system malfunctioned on a previous driving cycle. This might be caused by an intermittent problem
