OBD II drive cycle to turn off readiness monitors??
About a month ago,my wife got stuck in traffic with her '96 New Yorker and the MIL came on because of a cat inefficiency code. It eventually reset itself and went off, so I was very surprised when the week after when I got rejected on our state emission inspection. It still showed the code in the computer and the catalytic readiness monitor was still not set. So I found out that I needed to reset the code to remove it. Well of course, that resets all readiness monitors. Now 2 weeks later, I still have 3 of the monitors that have not reset. Does anyone know what sort of drive cycle will satisfy these monitors?? I need to get reinspected within 2 more wore weeks. Thanks.

Re: OBD II drive cycle to turn off readiness monitors??
Just to let everyone know, there is an eeprom update to address the problem I was having. Once the readiness monitors had set, when I turned the car off, it lost the readiness status in tyhe eeprom. I got it flashed yesterday and so far I just need to wait for it to run the EVAP and O2 cycles. This eeprom problem also affects some other vehicles including Neons. It's a free upgrade for the life of the vehicle.
