Hey...
I'm a hack mechanic in a one horse garage in central Pennsylvania with very little in depth experience with the Modis. I get by but this learning curve is ferocious. So understand that what I'm looking for is basic guidance as I'm frustrated and I don't have a ton of technical knowledge and experience that I can utilize this scanner to its fullest advantage.
I have run the service bay tests with select GM vehicles and that process does work. Is/are there similar processes for other vehicles? The vehicle I'm trying to set the EVAP monitor is a 2008 Odyssey 3.5. It's got miles, I need to set all monitors except one for the state's emissions machine to pass it. I have a limited amount of key cycles to do this as the vehicle has a lot of miles on it and it wants cats. This car's cats are prohibitively expensive for this single mother so we're trying to fly it without spending $1400+ of her money. As soon as the cat monitor flips, it throws a CEL. But I seem to get about a half dozen key cycles before that happens. If I can flip the evap monitor, I can get this thing through.
Thanks in advance for any help.
