OBD II Road Test Verification

Use this test to verify that the OBD II symptom has been repaired and that the vehicle can be returned to the customer. The proper way to verify that an OBD II DTC has been repaired is to allow the PCM to run and pass the appropriate OBD II monitor(s).

Note: If the Powertrain Control Module has been changed and the correct VIN and mileage have not been programmed, a DTC will be set in the ABS, Airbag and the SKIM modules. In addition, if the vehicle is equipped with a Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (SKIM), Secret Key data must be updated to enable starting.

1. Inspect the vehicle to ensure that all components related to the repair are connected properly.

2. If any other DTC is present, refer to the symptom list for further diagnostic testing procedures.

3. With the DRB III, clear DTC's.

4. In order for an OBD II monitor to run, certain pre-test conditions must be met. Refer to the applicable OBD II monitor pre-test screen on the DRB III for monitor enabling conditions.

5. Operate the vehicle within the enabling conditions and allow the applicable monitor to run. While the monitor is running, the OBD II monitor screen on the DRB III will display "IN PROGRESS" and the DRB III will beep. After the monitor is complete, view the results. Refer to the appropriate service information as necessary. A monitor may have to fail more than once in order to set a DTC.

If the monitor fails, or the DTC returns, or any other symptom or DTC is present, refer to the symptom list for further diagnostic testing procedures. Check for any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

If there are no DTC's present and all components are functioning properly, the repair is complete.
