BLCKTEC 430: How to check your Emissions Readiness LED lights.

Purpose

To guide you on where you can check your emissions readiness status using the red, yellow, and green LED lights on the RS2 app while using the BLCKTEC 430.

Step 1 - Select scan type.

After pairing with the RS2 App, you can perform a scan in the Home menu.

Note: You can select any type of scan available in the menu to check engine codes or any error codes that turn on your check engine light

Step 2 - Wait until the RS2 app reads the data from your vehicle.

The RS2 app will read the data from your vehicle, including the odometer.

Step 3 - Select Generate Report.

	After your vehicle's odometer is read by the RS2 app, select Generate Report.
	While generating the report, ensure your vehicle is turned to the ON position, and your smart device is close to your BLCKTEC 430.

Note: Your vehicle’s odometer mileage should automatically be recorded in the Odometer field.

Step 4 - View the Report Page.

The Report Page will appear after the RS2 app is done generating the report. The report will show a number of engine codes found related to your check engine light. To access the codes, select Results.

Step 5 - LED Colors.

A green light indicates that all engine systems are running normally, which means that all emission monitors are active and performing their diagnostic testing, and no DTCs are present. The vehicle is ready for a Smog Check or Vehicle Emissions Inspection.

A yellow light indicates that there is a possible problem in one or more of the vehicle’s systems that may prevent the vehicle from passing a Smog Check or Vehicle Emissions Inspection. Either a “Pending” DTC is present, and/or some of the vehicle's emission monitors have not run their diagnostic testing.

A red light indicates a problem in one or more of the vehicle’s systems that will prevent the vehicle from passing a Smog Check or Vehicle Emissions Inspection. The red LED is also used to show that DTC(s) are present in the vehicle's PCM. In this case, the check engine light will stay lit on the vehicle's dashboard.
