System Readiness Test (SRT) CodeNLEC1361S0103System Readiness Test (SRT) code is specified in Mode 1 of ISO 15031-5.
As part of an emissions test for Inspection & Maintenance (I/M), certain states require the status of SRT be
used to indicate whether the ECM has completed self-diagnosis of major emission systems and components.
Completion must be verified in order for the emissions inspection to proceed.
If a vehicle is rejected for a State emissions inspection due to one or more SRT items indicating ªINCMPº,
use the information in this Service Manual to set the SRT to ªCMPLTº.
In most cases the ECM will automatically complete its self-diagnosis cycle during normal usage, and the SRT
status will indicate ªCMPLTº for each application system. Once set as ªCMPLTº, the SRT status remains
ªCMPLTº until the self-diagnosis memory is erased.
Occasionally, certain portions of the self-diagnostic test may not be completed as a result of the customer's
normal driving pattern; the SRT will indicate ªINCMPº for these items.
NOTE:
The SRT will also indicate ªINCMPº if the self-diagnosis memory is erased for any reason or if the ECM
memory power supply is interrupted for several hours.
If, during the state emissions inspection, the SRT indicates ªCMPLTº for all test items, the inspector will con-
tinue with the emissions test. However, if the SRT indicates ªINCMPº for one or more of the SRT items the
vehicle is returned to the customer untested.
NOTE:
If MI is ªONº during the state emissions inspection, the vehicle is also returned to the customer untested even
though the SRT indicates ªCMPLTº for all test items. Therefore, it is important to check SRT (ªCMPLTº) and
DTC (No DTCs) before the inspection.

SRT Set Timing=NLEC1361S0105SRT is set as ªCMPLTº after self-diagnosis has been performed one or more times. Completion of SRT is done
regardless of whether the result is OK or NG. The set timing is different between OK and NG results and is
shown in the table below.

OK: Self-diagnosis is carried out and the result is OK.
NG: Self-diagnosis is carried out and the result is NG.
Ð: Self-diagnosis is not carried out.
When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results in a single cycle (Ignition OFF-ON-OFF), the SRT
will indicate ªCMPLTº.®Case 1 above
When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results through several different cycles, the SRT will indi-
cate ªCMPLTº at the time the respective self-diagnoses have at least one OK result.®Case 2 above
If one or more SRT related self-diagnoses showed NG results in 2 consecutive cycles, the SRT will also indi-
cate ªCMPLTº.®Case 3 above
The table above shows that the minimum number of cycles for setting SRT as ªINCMPº is one (1) for each
self-diagnosis (Case1&2)ortwo(2)foroneofself-diagnoses (Case 3). However, in preparation for the state
emissions inspection, it is unnecessary of each self-diagnosis to be executed twice (Case 3) for the following
reasons:
+The SRT will indicate ªCMPLTº at the time the respective self-diagnoses have one (1) OK result.
+The emissions inspection requires ªCMPLTº of the SRT only with OK self-diagnosis results.
+When, during SRT driving pattern, 1st trip DTC (NG) is detected prior to ªCMPLTº of SRT, the self-diag-
nosis memory must be erased from ECM after repair.
+If the 1st trip DTC is erased, all the SRT will indicate ªINCMPº.
NOTE:
SRT can be set as ªCMPLTº together with the DTC(s). Therefore, DTC check must always be carried out prior
to the state emission inspection even though the SRT indicates ªCMPLTº.

DESCRIPTION FOR WORK FLOWNLEC1368S01
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using
the ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº, EC-620.
STEP IIBefore confirming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT-II or GST) the (1st trip) DTC
and the (1st trip) freeze frame data, then erase the DTC and the data. (Refer to EC-594, EC-596.) The (1st trip)
DTC and the (1st trip) freeze frame data can be used when duplicating the incident at STEP III & IV.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-670.
Study the relationship between the cause, specified by (1st trip) DTC, and the symptom described by the cus-
tomer. (The ªSymptom Matrix Chartº will be useful. See EC-648.)
Also check related service bulletins for information.
STEP IIITry to confirm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº and the freeze frame data are useful to verify the incident. Connect CON-
SULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-670.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the (1st trip) DTC by driving in (or performing) the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº. Check and read
the (1st trip) DTC and (1st trip) freeze frame data by using CONSULT-II or GST.
During the (1st trip) DTC verification, be sure to connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO
TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº, EC-670.
In case the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº is not available, perform the ªOverall Function Checkº instead. The
(1st trip) DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simplified ªcheckº is an effective alternative.
The ªNGº result of the ªOverall Function Checkº is the same as the (1st trip) DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC PXXXX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed refer to ªBASIC INSPECTIONº, EC-623. If CONSULT-II is available, per-
form ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode with CONSULT-II and proceed to the ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS-SPECIFI-
CATION VALUEº, EC-666. (If malfunction is detected, proceed to ªREPAIR/REPLACEº. Then perform inspections
according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. (Refer to EC-648.)
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes.
Inspect the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ªHarness Layoutsº.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT-II. Refer to EC-657.
The ªDiagnostic Procedureº in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short circuit
inspection is also required for the circuit check in the Diagnostic Procedure. For details, refer to GI section
(ªHOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENTº, ªCircuit Inspectionº).
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
If malfunctioning part cannot be detected, perform ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENTº,
EC-670.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ªDTC Confirmation Procedureº and confirm the normal code [DTC No. P0000] is detected. If the
incident is still detected in the final check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already fixed) (1st trip) DTC in
ECM and TCM (Transmission control module). (Refer to EC-594, EC-596.)
