On-Board System Readiness Test Mode: Description

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 32 other vehicles, including the 2003 Mercury Sable, 2003 Mercury Mountaineer, 2003 Mercury Marauder, 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis, and 2003 Lincoln Town Car. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

All OBD-II scan tools should be able to display On-Board System Readings (OSR) test. The OSR will display monitors on the vehicle and status of all monitors; complete or not complete. If not complete, the scan tool will display which monitor has not completed. Comprehensive component, fuel and misfire monitors run continuously and will always display YES. Only a PCM reset, or keep alive RAM reset will cause non-continuous monitors to reinitialize and display NO.
