Test or Smog Check where the emissions related components and systems are inspected and tested for proper operation Emissions Tests are generally performed once a year or once every two years On OBD2 systems the I M program is enhanced by requiring vehicles to meet stricter test standards One of the tests instituted by the Federal Government is called I M 240 On I M 240 the vehicle under test is driven under different speeds and load conditions on a dynamometer for 240 seconds while the vehicle s emissions are measured Emissions tests vary depending on the geographic or regional C area in which the vehicle is registered If the vehicle is registered in a highly urbanized area the I M 240 is probably the type of test required If the vehicle is registered in a rural area the stricter dynamometer type test may not be required I M Readiness Monitors I M Readiness shows whether the various emissions related systems on the vehicle are operating properly and are ready for Inspection and Maintenance testing State and Federal Governments enacted Regulations Procedures and Emission Standards to ensure that all emissions related components and systems are continuously or periodically monitored tested and diagnosed whenever the vehicle is in operation It also requires vehicle manufacturers to automatically detect and report any problems or faults that may increase the vehicle s emissions to an unacceptable level The vehicl
