Diagnostic Procedures

  1. Did you perform the Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System Check? If yes, go to next step. If no, see INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE SYSTEM CHECK .
  2. Ensure the vehicle is within the Conditions for Running. Turn OFF all of the accessories (e.g., A/C, blower fan, etc.). Start the engine and allow it to idle for 2 minutes. For the Active Test to run, the vehicle must operate in the following conditions:
    • Acceleration at part throttle to 45 MPH with this speed maintained for 3 minutes or until the I/M System Status indicator updates to YES.
    • With a scan tool, review the I/M System Status display.

    Did the AIR System Status update to YES? If yes, go to step  5. If no, go to next step.

  3. With a scan tool, observe the DTC Information. Does the scan tool indicate any failed DTCs? If yes, see DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK - ENGINE CONTROLS  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM. If no, go to next step.
  4. To determine which DTCs are required to run in order to complete this test, see INSPECTION/MAINTENANCE SYSTEM DTCS  table. With a scan tool, observe the Not Ran Since Code Cleared display. Determine which of the DTCs required for a YES status has not run. Enter the DTC number in the Specific DTC menu of the scan tool. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running DTC. Repeat the procedure until the scan tool indicates the diagnostic test has run. Repeat procedure for any additional required DTCs that have not run. With a scan tool, observe the I/M System Status display. Did the Catalyst System Status update to YES? If yes, go to next step. If no, see DIAGNOSTIC AIDS .
  5. With a scan tool, observe the Emission Related DTC portion of the I/M System Status display. Does the scan tool indicate any Emission Related DTCs set? If yes, see DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS . If no, system is okay.
