So whenever I check to see if my truck is throwing any codes I get the same stupid P100 on board diagnostics system not ready. I was told that all I have to do is drive around for a while and it will reset itself and check for codes, but it does this to me all the time whenever I check the codes. Anybody know what is going on? I am worried my truck might be throwing codes but I cant read them because the system is not ready.

I am using an edge evo to check the codes btw.

There is a specific drive cycle.

Are you completing all the steps?

Another possibility is the Edge is causing the code. If you complete the drive cycle and the code is still there, I would call Edge.

 

I need to do all that in order to pull my codes?

 

You need to do all that to clear the p1000 code.

 

I think that sounds way to thorough. I just take my truck for a steady drive for a few mins, stop turn it off, wait, and then take another steady drive.

 

What if I just clear the codes...then drive like I usually would for few weeks. And then pull the codes? shouldnt that work? Am I missing something here because thats what I have been doing and its giving me the P1000 code.

 

Other than the p1000 code, what codes have you gotten?

 

none because the on board diagnostics system is not ready

 

Ok I turned my edge back to stock yesterday and ever since its running this code. Can I still check my other codes or is this keeping me from being able to read them?
