MIL Status

MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) status indicates if the vehicle com-

puter is telling the MIL to illuminate when the engine is running.

• MIL ON indicates that the check Engine Light should be ON.
• MIL OFF indicates that the Malfunction Indicator Lamp

should be OFF.

I/M Monitors

Inspection / Maintenance Monitors provide a snapshot of the Emission

System operations by indicating that the I/M Monitors are Ready or

Not Ready. For an I/M Monitor to be Ready, the vehicle must have

completed a drive cycle (been driven long enough under proper

conditions to have completed a drive cycle). A Monitor must be listed

as Ready to pass an emissions test. If an I/M Monitor is Not Ready,

it is because a drive cycle has not completed.

The Tool will indicate Ready (ok), Not Ready (inc), or Not Applicable

(n/a) for each I/M Monitor. The Tool supports the following I/M Monitors:

diesel vehicle.
