Can someone help me figure out this code??
I have a pretty elaborate scan tool/live data reader. I have checked several vehicles with and without problems, and a few, not all, have thrown a code that I cant figure out. I am not sure what to make of it, so I am coming here for help. The code is a P1000: OBD monitor/ drive cycle test not complete. Any ideas???
Thanks in advance,
Aaron

Not an expert but as I understand it this code comes up after other codes have been erased or the battery has been disconnected for whatever reason. It will go away once the vehicle has completed the OBD drive cycle.

In order to test everything that is required on OBDII it takes quite a bit of driving. If the codes have been cleared or the PCM is new a P1000 is stored to tell the tech that the PCM has not completed all of it's tests. All it means is that it takes more driving for all of the OBDII tests to complete.

It might not actually take all that much driving, but the driving has to meet their definition of a 'trip'. For some things, I believe that multiple trips are required.
If there's a reason to get this cleared, you can probably find out the definition for a trip somewhere in the vast web. I've seen it a few times, but never really paid much attention. Otherwise, it will clear eventually.

It has to meet the definition of the OBDII DRIVE CYCLE complete with pre-programmed entry criteria.
P1000 is not a fault code. It is a status code that advises that the emissions systems self-diagnostics (monitors) are not complete.
Nothing more, nothing less...
