idainc I I had the CEL go on and the codes said to replace the oxygen sensor and the purge valve. Did the work and reset the CEL and I need a smog check soon. ITs been about 300 miles and 9 days and the OBD scanner is still showing: "No powertrain DTC's or freeze frame data..." meaning the ecm hasn't doen enough samples to allow for a smog check. About how long do you thin it may take for me to be emissions ready ? The CEL is still off and an impromptu off the record smog check shows its cleared. But I do need to pass. #1 · Jul 17, 2016 I had the CEL go on and the codes said to replace the oxygen sensor and the purge valve. Did the work and reset the CEL and I need a smog check soon.

Thanks. This is an ECM issue now with the car doing just fine according to the shop's emission test. But the ECM wont allow a formal state (California) test until AFTER a certain period of time and or cycles and or miles. Was hoping to get guidance on just how much or long. Right now I'm in a drive up and hope its time mode. A smog check is locked out until then #4 · Jul 18, 2016 not sure how they do a smog test over there, but here in the uk they wont take the word of the cars ECM, they stick a probe into the exhaust and measure the emmissions directly.(off to google california smog test) :) #5 · Jul 18, 2016 QUOTE (grendel1960 @ Jul 18 2016, 01:45 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>not sure how they do a smog test over there, but here in the uk they wont take the word of the cars ECM, they stick a probe into the exhaust and measure the emmissions directly.(off to google california smog test) :) Every state is different. Arizona does not air ample and California does. #6 · Aug 13, 2016 And the DTC message finally disappeared after about 700 miles and the car passed the smog test. &00 miles was pretty remarkable somehow. Had to take it on an 80 mph 200 mile run. Insert Quotes Post Reply
