Confirmation Driving Pattern
PURPOSE (see READINESS MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN )
HINT:
Performing this confirmation pattern will activate the catalyst monitoring by the ECM. This is very useful for verifying the completion of repairs.
- Clear the DTCs.
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / CARB OBD II / READINESS TESTS. Check that CAT EVAL is INCMPL (incomplete).
- Drive the vehicle according to the confirmation driving pattern. Note the state of the Readiness Tests. They will change to COMPL (complete) as the CAT evaluation monitors operate.
- Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / PENDING CODES. Check if any DTC (any pending code) is set.
If the READINESS CODE of CAT EVAL was INCMPL and any DTC (includes pending codes) was not set, extend the driving time.
NOTE:
If you do not have the intelligent tester, perform again the same confirmation driving pattern after turning OFF the power switch upon finishing the first confirmation driving pattern.
