every emission control system (8) is monitored, each system has its own readiness codes...readiness codes can either be ready/complete or not ready/not complete. Depending on your state you must have x number of readiness codes complete as one of the requirements to pass the test. Keep driving the car until most of them are ready. Do no reset the pcm or the battery as it will reset all the monitors.

 

thank you very much for the help.
