The OBD II system monitors all emission control systems that are on-board. Not all vehicles have a full complement of emission control systems. For example, a vehicle may not be equipped with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR). The OBD II regulations require monitoring of the following:
- Comprehensive component monitoring-Emission related inputs and outputs
- The EGR system
- Misfire monitoring
- Catalyst monitoring
For the specific DTCs required for each system, refer to Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) System DTC Table .
