Failed Emissions. Computer Not Ready
Failed Emissions. Computer Not Ready Yesterday I failed the Washington State emissions test because my computer was not ready. I do have headers and i'm not running any cats. So up until this weekend it was throwing a code because there were no rear o2 sensors. But on Saturday I had the car dyno tuned and the code was programmed out.
The sheet the emission testing place gave me said there could be up to 2 "not ready" codes and the car would still pass. It should only have one since he didn't touch anything else.
So it sounds like the computer hasn't run through a complete cycle yet. Is this normal? I have put about 150 miles on the car since my tune.
Could there be something wrong?

There's two ways to "program out" a code, one is
"enabled, no error" (good) and one is "disabled".
Disabling can suppress the "higher level" readiness
monitors that depend on tests running to complete.
Some tests want very specific circumstances to run
and your everyday commute may, or may not, hit
the conditions. There is a "drive cycle" that's defined
to hit them but it can be pretty tedious to execute.
So be sure the code turn-off isn't going to make it
all for nothing.

Would it matter if he set it to disable or no error? Because up to 2 codes can be "not ready" and it will still pass. Or are you saying that one code will effect others and not allow the car to complete a cycle?

Verdad Gallardo So I took the car to the local auto parts store and they scanned it. It came up with 4 codes. All of which said that bank 1 & 2 sensor #2 no activity.
What exactly does this mean?
Edit: There is still no SES light.

Ok so I took it back to the tuner and he wasn't exactly sure how to turn off the SES light without completely disabling the rear O2 sensors.
I was wondering what exactly needs to be changed from stock to pass emissions? He is using HP tuners. So what parameters should he change and what should he change them to?

So I took it to the auto parts store and pugges it into a handheld scanner and I got the same codes.
p0140 and p0160.
What is the tuner doing wrong that it is making the computer throw these codes even though I don't have a Service Engine light on?
