Trigger readiness tests

turbo2ltr · 07-08-2023, 12:29 PM

So my 2018 is now 5 years old and AZ requires an emissions test by the end of the month. Guess which month the original battery decided to die.

So now my readiness tests are.... not ready. I pulled out my ancient OBDII software and found 5 of the 8 not complete. I took it out for a 20 mile 6th gear cruise on the highway and came back to find all but two complete..

Evap System
O2 sensor

Anyone have any data on exactly the criteria for getting these to run?

This is not my daily and it has super low mileage on it. I actually barely drive it because I barely drive to begin with and prefer to take the beater if I'm parking anywhere. So taking it out just to drive around like a normal person (instead of like I stole it) is killing me. lol.

5 years and the battery couldn't just hold out one more month?!?!
