Description
The purpose of the inspection/maintenance (I/M) complete system set procedure is to satisfy the enable criteria necessary to execute all of the I/M readiness diagnostics, and complete the trips for those particular diagnostics. When all diagnostic tests are completed, the I/M System Status indicators are set to YES. Perform this test when more than one of the I/M System Status indicators are set to NO.
Conditions for Running
Cold Start
| • | The barometric pressure is more than 68 kPa. |
| • | The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between 4-35°C (39-95°F). |
| • | The intake air temperature (IAT) is between 4-35°C (39-95°F). |
| • | The difference between the IAT and the ECT is 10°C (18°F) or less. |
| • | The battery voltage is between 10.5-17 volts. |
| • | The fuel level is between 15-85 percent. |
| • | The ambient air temperature is between 2-32°C (36-90°F). |
| • | The difference between the startup ECT and ambient air temperature is less than 10°C (18°F). |
| • | The engine is in Closed Loop fuel control. |
| • | The fuel tank pressure is between -3.8 and +1.0 kPa (-0.6 and +0.1 psi). |
| • | The vehicle has traveled more than 5 miles this trip. |
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
-
This step is to run the HO2S Heater Tests and initiate the EVAP System Test.
-
This step is to run the EVAP, AIR and the Oxygen Sensor Tests. The EVAP Test begins once the engine coolant reaches a calibrated temperature. The AIR Test, if equipped, begins shortly after Closed Loop and the indicated speed is achieved. The Oxygen Sensor Tests begin once the engine is at operating temperature, in Closed Loop Fuel Control, and a calibrated amount of time has elapsed.
-
This step is to run the EGR Tests. The EGR Tests are run during a gradual deceleration with a closed throttle. The vehicle speed is required in order to maintain a high, steady MAP signal.
-
This step is to run the Catalyst Tests. This test runs during the idle period immediately following a cruise period that meets a minimum calibrated RPM and time period.
-
The I/M System Status only reports on whether or not a diagnostic has run, not what the outcome of the test was. If any emission related DTC sets after the tests are complete, the DTC will require diagnosis.
