Failed inspection...

Multiple "Not Supported" messages in the OBD Monitor Results on the MA emissions.

Now I have to go to a Motorist Assistance Center. When I called they said some crap about my car being "pre-flagged" for visual inspection.
My thoughts are i was still running my 93 dyno tune and something is turned off in it like cat temps sensor or something. I usually run the 87 canned tune in the winter and have no issues with emissions.

Anyone else run across this? Could the tech running the scan have pulled the OBD fuse or anything? Where is that fuse anyway?

On a side note I now have the 87 tune in for the inspection tomorrow...

Thanks.

Still show not supported, I may have to put the stock airbox on but if it still fails could be something bigger, unless I blew a fuse installing the seat heaters.

Readiness monitors were shut off in the SCT tunes, back on now and passed. What a PIA...

This happens a lot.
Most times it is because tuners turn off the O2 sensors.
That's what happened with mine. I got my tuner to do a tune with the O2 sensors turned on and I passed no problems.

I always take my intake off and reinstall my stock tune and intake about a week before my testing. just to be safe.

Quick question for you; how much driving did you have to do after re-flashing your ECU with the new tune before you got re-inspected and passed?
