WWII HiStOrIaN

Did I do something wrong? This started showing up right after I installed my Edge. 04 XLT Supercab 2wd.

did you go back to stock ... this is displayed when the drive cycle is not complete...it will go away when all conditions are met.

i literally have not changed a single tune on the truck. It is and always has been in stock. I only just acquired the Edge.

You must of disconnected your battery then...you are safe to install a program...try level 2 first...

when you connect to or update the ECU, you kill all the OBD test status values. You need to drive the truck in a manner that completes all the required tests again. People used to clear CELs by wiping the test info and passing emission tests that way. Now you have to have actual OBD tests complete to pass. Just drive it.

It does not happen when you connect to or every time you plug in a DTC reader it would happen ....now updating the ECU yes.. disconnecting the battery ...not sure

I haven't disconnected my battery since I bought the battery a while ago. Also, what I have gathered from what you said and linked is that I need to pass these so called "tests". Does this mean that my truck won't show any other codes until I do these "tests"? How is this going to affect me because I'm not entirely sure what I need to do here.

You don't need to do anything, just driving the truck will allow it to complete the tests. If you have any other issues during the emission test then it will set a code accordingly such as leaving the gas cap loose or having a small or gross leak detected.


The OBD Readiness link posted above by tcp2 describes it perfectly.
