1. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at
3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in
neutral) until the radiator fan comes on.
2. Test-drive the vehicle on a level road: Decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) from an engine speed
of 2,500 rpm down to 1,000 rpm with the A/T in
S in 1st or 2nd, or M/T in 1st.
3. Test-drive the vehicle on a level road: Decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) from an engine speed
of 5,000 rpm down to 3,000 rpm with the A/T in
S in 1st or 2nd, or M/T in 1st.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 several times.
5. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and wait 30 seconds. 1. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
2. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see page
11-310).
3. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
4. Disconnect the HDS from the DLC. NOTE: The ECM/PCM is part of the immobilizer
system. If you replace the ECM/PCM, it will have a
different immobilizer code. For the engine to start,
you must rewrite the immobilizer code with the
HDS.

13. Do the battery installation procedure (see page
22-69).
14. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II). NOTE: DTC P0630 VIN Not Programmed or
Mismatch may be stored because the VIN has not
been programmed into the ECM/PCM; ignore it,
and continue this procedure.
15. Manually input the VIN to the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
16. Select the IMMOBI SYSTEM with the HDS.
17. Enter the immobilizer code that you got from the iN, or use the ECM/PCM replacement procedure in the
HDS; this allows you to start the engine.
18. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.
19. If the TP POSITION CHECK failed in step 5, clean the throttle body (see page 11- 344).
20. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software (see page 11-227).
21. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see page 11-310).
22. Do the CKP pattern clear/CKP pattern learn procedure. The OBD status shows the current system status of
each DTC and all of the parameters. This function is
used to see if the repair was successfully completed.
The results of diagnostic tests for the DTC are displayed
as:
 PASSED: The on board diagnosis is successfully finished.
 FAILED: The on board diagnosis has finished but failed.
 EXECUTING: The vehicle is in enable criteria conditions for the DTC and the on board diagnosis is
running.
 NOT COMPLETED: The on board diagnosis was running but is out of the enable conditions of the DTC.
 OUT OF CONDITION: The vehicle has stayed out of the enable conditions for the DTC.

The knock control system adjusts the ignition timing to
minimize knock.
The MAP sensor converts manifold absolute pressure
into electrical signals to the ECM/PCM.
The vehicle has certain readiness codes that are part of
the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems. If
the vehicle’s battery has been disconnected or gone
dead, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the ECM/PCM
has been reset, these codes are reset. In some states,
part of the emissions testing is to make sure these
codes are set to complete. If all of them are not set to
complete, the vehicle may fail the test, or the test
cannot be finished.
To check if the readiness codes are set to complete,
turn the ignition switch to ON (II), but do not start the
engine. The MIL will come on for 15 20 seconds. If it
then goes off, the readiness codes are complete. If it
flashes five times, one or more readiness codes are not
complete. To set each code, drive the vehicle or run the
engine as described in the procedures (see page 11-69). The mass air flow (MAF) sensor/intake air temperature
(IAT) sensor contains a hot wire sensor, a cold wire
sensor, and a thermistor. It is located in the intake air
passage. The resistance of the hot wire sensor, the cold
wire sensor, and the thermistor change due to intake air
temperature and air flow. The control circuit in the MAF
sensor controls the current to keep the hot wire at a set
temperature. The current is converted to voltage in the
control circuit, then output to the ECM/PCM.
This sensor detects countershaft speed.

How to Set Readiness Codes
The vehicle has certain readiness codes that are part of
the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems. If
the vehicle’s battery has been disconnected or gone
dead, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the ECM/PCM
has been reset, these readiness codes are reset to
incomplete. In some states, part of the emissions
testing is to make sure these codes are set to complete.
If all of them are not set to complete, the vehicle may
fail the emission test, or the test cannot be finished.
To check if the readiness codes are set to complete,
turn the ignition switch to ON (II), but do not start the
engine. The MIL will come on for 15 20 seconds. If it
then goes off, the readiness codes are set to complete.
If it flashes five times, one or more readiness codes are
not set to complete. To set readiness codes from
incomplete to complete, do the procedure for the
appropriate code.
To check the status of a specific DTC system, check the
OBD status in the DTC MENU with the HDS (see page
11-8). This screen displays the code, the current data list
of the enable criteria, and the status of the readiness
testing. NOTE:
 Do not turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) or ACC (I) during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM is reset with the HDS.
 Low ambient temperatures or excessive stop-and-go traffic may increase the drive time needed to switch
the readiness code from incomplete to complete.
 The readiness code will not switch to complete until all the enable criteria are met.
 If a fault in the secondary HO2S system caused the MIL to come on, the readiness code cannot be set to
complete until you correct the fault.
 ECT SENSOR 1 at 70 °C (158 °F) or more.
 IAT SENSOR at 7 °C (20 °F) or more.
 Vehicle speed (VSS) above 40 km/h (25 mph). 1. Connect the HDS to the vehicle’s data link connector (DLC), and bring up the READINESS
CODEs screen for Catalyst in the DTCs MENU.
2. Start the engine.
3. Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions with short periods of steady cruise. After about
8 km (5 miles), the readiness code should switch to
complete.
4. If the readiness code is still not set to complete, check for a Temporary DTC with the HDS. If there is
no DTC, one or more of the enable criteria were
probably not met; repeat the procedure.

4. Check for a Temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, one or more of the enable criteria were probably not
met; repeat the procedure. NOTE:
 Do not turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) or ACC (I) during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM is reset with the HDS.
ECT SENSOR 1 at 60 °C (140 °F) or more. 1. Start the engine.
2. Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions with short periods of steady cruise. During the
drive, decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for
5 seconds. After about 5.6 km (3.5 miles), the
readiness code should switch from incomplete to
complete.
3. Check the readiness codes screen for the air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
 If the screen shows complete, readiness is complete.
 If the screen shows not complete, go to the next step.
4. Check for a Temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, the enable criteria was probably not met. Select the
DATA LIST MENU. Check the ECT SENSOR 1 in the

NOTE: All readiness codes are cleared when the battery
is disconnected, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM is reset with the HDS.
1. Start the engine, and let it idle for 1 minute. The readiness code should switch from incomplete to
complete.
2. If the readiness code is still not set to complete, check for a Temporary DTC. If there is no DTC,
repeat the procedure.
 This readiness code is always set to available because misfiring is continuously monitored.
 Monitoring pauses, and the misfire counter resets, if the vehicle is driven over a rough road.
 Monitoring also pauses, and the misfire counter holds at its current value, if the throttle position
changes more than a predetermined value, or if
driving conditions fall outside the range of any
related enable criteria.
 This readiness code is always set to available because the fuel system is continuously monitored
during closed loop operation.
 Monitoring pauses when the catalytic converter, EVAP control system, and A/F sensor monitors are
active.
 Monitoring also pauses when any related enable criteria are not being met. Monitoring resumes when
the enable criteria is again being met.
This readiness code is always set to available because
the comprehensive component monitor is continuously
running when ever the engine is cranking or running. NOTE:
 Do not turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0) or ACC (I) during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM is reset with the HDS.
ECT SENSOR 1 at 80 °C (176 °F) or more. 1. Connect the HDS to the DLC.
2. Start the engine.
3. Drive at a steady speed with the A/T in D position or M/T in 4th gear, at 80 100 km/h (50 62 mph) or
above for more than 10 seconds.
4. With the A/T in D position or M/T in 4th gear, decelerate from 100 km/h (62 mph) or above by
completely releasing the throttle for at least
5 seconds. If the engine is stopped during this
procedure, go to step 3 and do the procedure again.
5. Check the OBD status screen for DTC P0401 in the DTC’s MENU with the HDS.
 If it is PASSED, readiness is complete.
 If it is not PASSED, go to step 3 and retest.
