OBD-II Drive Cycle Vehicle Preparation

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 25 other vehicles, including the 2002 Lincoln Town Car, 2002 Lincoln Navigator, 2002 Lincoln LS, 2002 Lincoln Continental, and 2002 Lincoln Blackwood. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

OBD-II drive cycle procedure is designed to execute and complete OBD-II monitors and clear DTC P1000. Ensure level in fuel tank is between 1/2-3/4 full. A 3/4 full tank is preferable. Use the following procedures to complete a specific monitor and record for repair verification:

  1. Install scan tool. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Cycle ignition switch off, then on. Using scan tool, select vehicle and engine. Clear DTCs. See CLEARING CODES  under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
  2. Using scan tool, access PCM PIDs: ECT, EVAPDC, FLI (if available) and TP MODE from PID/DATA MONITOR & RECORD menu. Start engine. DO NOT turn ignition switch to OFF position. Allow engine to idle for 15 seconds. Drive at 40 MPH until ECT PID is at least 170°F (77°C).
  3. If IAT PID is 40-100°F (4-38°C), perform appropriate MONITOR drive cycle procedure(s). See OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PROCEDURE . If IAT PID is not 40-100°F (4-38°C), perform appropriate monitor drive cycle procedure(s), ensuring EVAP MONITOR BY-PASS drive cycle is performed to clear DTC P1000.
