OBD DRIVE MODE[AJ (3.0L Duratec)]

• If the OBD system inspection is not completed during the Drive Mode, the following causes are considered:

― The OBD system detects a malfunction.

― The Drive Mode procedure is not completed correctly.

• Disconnecting the battery will reset the memory. Do not disconnect the battery during and after Drive Mode.

• The M-MDS can be used at anytime through the course of the Drive Mode to monitor the completion status. Monitoring can be done by viewing the ON BOARD SYSTEM READINESS menu.

• Most OBD monitors will complete more readily using a “steady foot” driving style during cruise or acceleration. Operating the throttle in a "smooth" fashion will minimize the time required for monitor completion.

• The fuel tank level should be between 1/2 and 3/4 full with 3/4 full being the most desirable.

• The evaporative monitor can only operate during the first 30 min of the engine operation. When executing the procedure for the evaporative monitor, remain in part throttle position and drive in a smooth fashion to minimize "fuel slosh".

OBD monitor exercised	Step	Procedure	Purpose
Drive Mode Preparation	1	• Connect the M-MDS to the DLC‐2. • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off). • Turn the ignition switch off, them to the ON position (Engine off). • Select the appropriate vehicle and engine qualifier. • Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. Note • The following events occur when a PCM Reset is performed: ― Clears the number of DTCs. ― Clears the DTCs. ― Clears the freeze frame data. ― Clears diagnostic monitoring test results. ― Resets status of the OBD system monitors. ― Sets DTC P1000. • Perform the PCM Reset.	Bypasses the engine soak timer. Resets the OBD monitor status.
2	• Start the engine without turning the ignition switch off.
3	• Idle the engine for 15 s. • Drive at 64 km/h {40 mph} until the ECT is 77 °C {171 °F} or more.
Prep for Monitor Entry	4	Note • When the IAT is not within 4.4—37.8 °C {40—100 °F} or the altitude is above 2,438 m {8,000 ft}, the EVAP monitor will not run. • Is the IAT within 4.4—37.8 °C {40—100 °F}? ― If not within the specification, complete the following steps but, note that step 14 will be required to "bypass" the EVAP monitor.

EVAP	6	• Cruise at 72—104 km/h {45—64 mph} for 10 min.	Executes the EVAP monitor.
Catalyst	7	• Stop the vehicle and go to traffic conditions. • Include five different constant cruise speeds, ranging from 40—72 km/h {25—44 mph} over a 10 min period.	Executes the catalyst monitor.
EGR	8	• Stop the vehicle. • Accelerate to 72 km/h {45 mph} at 1/2 to 3/4 throttle position. • Repeat 3 times.	Executes the EGR monitor.
CCM (Engine)	9	• Stop the vehicle. • Idle the engine for 2 min with the selector lever in the D range.	Executes the idle air control portion of the CCM.
CCM (Transaxle)	10	• Stop the vehicle. • In overdrive, moderately accelerate to 80 km/h {50 mph} and cruise for 15 s or more. • Stop the vehicle and repeat without overdrive to 64 km/h {40 mph} cruising for 30 s or more. • While at 64 km/h {40 mph}, activate overdrive and accelerate to 80 km/h {50 mph} and cruise for 15 s or more. • Stop the vehicle for 20 s or more. • Repeat Step 10 five times.	Executes the transaxle portion of the CCM.
Misfire and Fuel	11	• Stop the vehicle. • Accelerate to 104 km/h {65 mph}. • Decelerate at closed throttle until reaching 64 km/h {40 mph}(no brakes). • Repeat 3 times.	Allows learning for the misfire monitor.
Readiness Check	12	• Access the ON BOARD SYSTEM READINESS to verify the OBD monitoring status. ― If completed, all of the OBD monitoring status items change from non-completed to completed. ― If not completed, go to the next step.	Determines if any monitor has not been completed.
Pending Code Check and EVAP Monitor Bypass Check	13	• Verify that no pending code has been stored. If any pending code has been stored, perform the appropriate DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE.) • Otherwise, return any incomplete monitor. Note • If the EVAP monitor is not completed and the IAT was out of the 4.4—37.8 °C {40—100 °F} range, or the altitude is above 2,438 m {8,000 ft}, the "EVAP Monitor Bypass“ procedure must be followed. • Perform the “EVAP Monitor Bypass“ procedure.	Note • The DTC P1000 will be stored if any of the OBD monitors does not complete. Determines if a pending code is preventing the clearing of the DTC P1000.
EVAP Monitor Bypass	14	• Leave the vehicle for 8 h. • Go to Step 2 then perform from Step 2 to 12.	Allows the “bypass“ counter to increment to two.

Procedure

Purpose

Drive Mode Preparation

• Connect the M-MDS to the DLC‐2.

• Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off).

• Turn the ignition switch off, them to the ON position (Engine off).

• Select the appropriate vehicle and engine qualifier.

• Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.

Note

• The following events occur when a PCM Reset is performed:

― Clears the number of DTCs.

― Clears the DTCs.

― Clears the freeze frame data.

― Clears diagnostic monitoring test results.

― Resets status of the OBD system monitors.

― Sets DTC P1000.

• Perform the PCM Reset.

Bypasses the engine soak timer. Resets the OBD monitor status.

• Start the engine without turning the ignition switch off.

• Idle the engine for 15 s.

• Drive at 64 km/h {40 mph} until the ECT is 77 °C {171 °F} or more.

Prep for Monitor Entry

• When the IAT is not within 4.4—37.8 °C {40—100 °F} or the altitude is above 2,438 m {8,000 ft}, the EVAP monitor will not run.
