im trying to pass ref but im having trouble setting my civic monitors to ready.

the heated o2 sensor is set to ready

the other o2 sensor and catalytic converter are not ready

ive driven many miles to try to set them to ready but no luck


anyone have suggestions on getting those ready?


thanks in advance

You can't just reset your computer? And if the code for the converter and secondary o2 won't go away, most likely, you have a bad catalytic converter.

its not the check engine code that i need to go away..all codes on the ecu are fine...

im looking to get my monitors that my car tests on certain driving conditions set to ready when they plug in the obd2 scanner

How many miles have you driven? You may need to drive more than 75 miles or so.

I usually tell the customer to drive 75 to 100 miles then park it overnight. Wake up and drive another 30 or so.

Some monitors are "two trip monitors" and to get the car to complete a "trip" is to let the motor cool down to ambient temp after the first 75 to 100mi. Overnight.

this is how i set my monitors when i was tryin to pass Bar

do this procedure 2x

-start up the car cold and let it idle until warm (fan kicks on 2x)
-drive it as steady speeds of 50-60mph for at least 6miles (12miles rd trip), freeway is best
-this should of set MOST of not all the monitors
-let it cool down and do it over again and it SHOULD set ALL the monitors
-if something is wrong it will throw a CEL
