16. Connect the DRB to the Data Link Connector and erase trouble codes.

17. With the DRB, reset all memory values.

18. If this test is for an A/C trouble code, ensure it is operating during the following road test.

19. Drive the vehicle for at least five minutes. For some of the drive, go at least 40 mph. At some point stop the vehicle and turn the engine OFF for 10 seconds or more, then restart and continue. Ensure the transmission shifts through all gears.
