2011-12 Fusion Hybrid: Description
The following procedure is designed to execute and complete the OBD monitors and to clear the Ford DTC P1000. To complete a specific monitor for repair verification, follow steps 1 through 4, then continue with the step described by the appropriate monitor found under the OBD monitor exercised column. When the ambient air temperature is not between 4° to 37°C (40° to 100°F), or the altitude is above 2,438 meters (8,000 feet), the evaporative emissions (EVAP) monitor does not run. If the DTC P1000 must be cleared in these conditions, the powertrain control module (PCM) must detect them once before the EVAP monitor can be bypassed and the P1000 cleared. The EVAP bypassing procedure is described in the following drive cycle.
The OBD drive cycle is carried out using a scan tool. Refer to the manufacturer's instruction manual for each described function.
