P1000 OBD-II Monitor Testing Incomplete?
 
Hey guys, I didnt know were to start this thread. I have this trouble code stored in the com and dont know what it exactly means. Any help in translating this code would be appreciated. Does this have to be fixed at a Ford dealer or can I take it to any mech? Thanx in advance for the help.

That means there are no codes set and there arent enough drive cycles yet completed since the last time the codes were cleared. Once enough drive cycles have been completed you will get system passed or a fault code.

Most likely you need to take a drive, 10 minutes at highway speeds and 20 minutes at city speeds, without turning off the engine. Also while driving at city speeds there has to be several periods of stop and go. Check the book that came with your vehicle under Emissions Control to verify that.

Thanks guys, I just did the driving portion since I have to drive about that everyday to work. I appreciate the help.

Expanding on Homer's comments:

This is NOT a fault code. It is an indicator code that simply means all the self-tests have not been run yet since the last computer reset.

It's primary practical effect is to keep vehicle owner's from cheating on emissions tests.
