By Jim Wilson. Join Jim as he illustrates how to check Mode $06 data.

Checking Mode $06 data should show a screen like this.

This screen indicates the computer can find a misfire and passed this vehicle.

If you see a screen like this then the monitor has not run even if it says it has. The Monitor will always report done even if it hasn’t run. No maximum limits indicate that the monitor is incomplete. Blackjack online has become very common in Indian casinos.

The KAM memory needs to be erased to run this monitor to update the stored information.
Use your scan tool to reset KAM or disconnect the battery to allow the vehicle to re-learn.
Look up how to run the monitor and set the vehicle up to complete it.

The monitor run criteria states a process of clearing codes and run a Power train reset. This is the same procedure to reset the Keep Alive Memory (KAM).

Run the monitor and then use the Enhanced Ford data to see if the monitor is complete.

The Misfire Profile Learn must report yes to verify the monitor has run. In this case it doesn’t so we need to run the monitor to completion. Always perform this last step to verify the monitor has actually run.

See you next time.
