Hi all, just bought my second xj, although I had to look up what xj stands for-all I ever knew was CJ, LOL, its a 2001 Limited, 4.0, 4x4, auto, with 122kmi (so I think I beat the cracked head problem). Anyway, I tried to smog it today and the report said, "Not Ready: Heated O2, Evap." Makes me mad because my '89 passed Calif smog with 240kmi.
The tech at the testing station, and the paper he gave me, says "Reset Readyness Monitors." WTF? No codes thrown, no lights on the dash(wife said engine light came on then went off the other day) so just DC the battery for a minute, reconnect, then drive it for a while and retest??? Then it talks about drive cycles, that it might require more than one cycle to reset the dang thing, how many cycles does a 2001 require so I can do them and not fail again just because of that?
Thanks in advance
