Awesome Ill build that PID and check it out. Thanks again. You're the master of Torque!

Boy oh boy... PID...that's pretty serious

Haha. I guess maybe - "NOT". I just made a quick run of about 30 miles - turned Torque on and scrolled around a little. And spotted right there in the standard dashboard screens the "Emissions Rediness / DTC" screen.
It has the current status of all the monitors:
Misfire Monitor
Fuel System Monitor
Components Monitor
Catalyst Monitor
Evaporative Sys
O2 Sensor
O2 Sensor Heater


I remember now seeing that PID number for that in my 'PID' research ---- but Torque has already sorted it out and displayed all them on that one screen. Check that and see what it indicates.

It gets that way if one is obsessive (like me) about sorting ALL the stuff out that's crammed into that little PCM under our hoods.


I've been searching/researching/digging for over a year trying to pry information out of it. --- The manufacturers keep the stuff too close to their chest. I've identified some 550 different sensors/parameters that are available from the OBDII system on Fords. IT BLOWS YOUR MIND. Care to know how many revs your tires should make in a mile? Or whatever. Many Many seem far more useful. I've tested lots of them - but still scadd loads left to work out. At some point, I'm going to publish a comprehensive list.

In the emissions readiness screen it says everything is running. So I ran the test log and it still says the misfire is incomplete or failed. I think I'll try the drive cycle pid when I get a chance.

NOTE: On my truck, the Torque "Emissions Readiness screen", each of the Monitor tests listed in my prior post says "Completed". I think we are on top of the reason yours reports fail in the Mode 06 test results. Mode 06 is a 'snapshot' of current conditions - and when the tests are 'running' - it seems normal to report incomplete, not ready or failed or something like that.


ALSO NOTE: On my short road trip today I noticed the PID I gave you "Number of OBDII drive cycles completed" started out at 843 - and to my surprise - incremented each time I stopped / restarted - six counts on the trip. Before returning home, I looked through my list and focused on another PID - titled "Number of OBDII TRIPS completed'. PID 0100. I threw a custom PID in for my return trip (30 miles). It read 11 and it still reads 11 after my I got home.


Is it possible ??? that my truck would accumulate only 11 complete trips - fully satisfying all the monitor conditions - in the year / 10,000 miles since my timing job/clear of DTCs.??? IDK.


It would be VERY interesting (to me) to know what that PID reports on your truck. I believe your Emissions Readiness screen confirms that the Misfire Monitor has not successfully completed yet (for unk reasons). To me, it seems like either 'drive cycles' or 'TRIP count' should then read zero. IDK which - but based on the smaller number on my veh., I'm questioning the application of terms in my documentation. It would be nice to know if TRIP count has to complete and increment for readiness to become true.


TRIP COUNT is:


MODE/PID: 220100
Long Name: "_Number of completed OBDII Trips"
Short Name: TRIPCNT
Min/Max 0, 255
Units: CNT
Formula: A

I have built the 2 PIDs and Ill check them later today.

BadFish523

So I have 40 drive cycles and 0 obd2 cycles. Any idea what that means? Think its causing me to not see the misfires in the test results? Any ideas how to fix it?

F150Torqued

I'll have to look for / find my documentation on what constitutes - or what is required to satisfy a 'completed' trip, or whatever designation it is that allows the monitors to complete. I gather - since I have 840 some-odd on PID 0101 and 11 on PID 0100, that suggests your 40 to 0 would mean ZERO completed something(s) are missing - and that is keeping the monitors from completing.


All I can suggest for now is DRIVE it - under all kinds of conditions!

BadFish523

Lol that's the plan. Thanks again for all the help! I'll be looking forward to all these extra PIDs when you release a list!
