Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
On Board System Readiness (OSR) Test : Description
All on board diagnostic (OBD) scan tools should display the OSR Test. The OSR displays the supported monitors on the vehicle, the status of all monitors (complete or not complete), and the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) status. If a monitor is not complete, the scan tool does not identify the monitor that has not completed. Readiness for the 6.0L is reported based on the completeness of the comprehensive component monitors (CCM) and the misfire monitor and the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) monitor. These monitors must be complete before readiness can be cleared.
