How can I keep my oxygen sensor ready?
First, reset the car’s computer. Then drive your car, covering a distance of 50 to 100 miles. Your monitor needs driving to check the sensors and determine any potential problems.

How will I figure out if my drive cycle is complete?
Do not start the engine for at least eight hours. Drive at a steady highway speed for 15 minutes. For twenty minutes, drive with 30 seconds of idle time in between.

When a catalyst monitor won’t run, it’s often some undocumented logic. For instance, I’ve found marginal O2 or AF (air/fuel) sensors to be the cause. The O2 sensor monitor has run, and PASSED, but the converter monitor won’t run. After replacing the poorly performing O2 or AF sensor, the catalyst monitor runs on the first drive.
