On-Board System Readiness: Description

All OBD II scan tools display the On-Board System Readiness (OSR) Test. The OSR will display the supported monitors on the vehicle and the status of all monitors (complete or not complete) at that time. Fuel, misfire and comprehensive component monitors run continuously and will always display "YES" status. Clearing the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and resetting the emission monitors information in the powertrain control module (PCM) or resetting the keep alive memory (KAM) causes the non-continuous monitors to change to a "NO" status.
