This is an evaporative emmisions - small leak detected. Sometimes caused by fueling with the engine running (the fuel cap has to seal the fuel tank for the pressure sensor to read correctly), but can be a leak at the evaporative canister, Check valve on top of the fuel tank cracked and a host of other components, fittings or leak points. Best bet is to have a diagnostic done by a shop which should include pressurizing lines, etc.

IAC count is lower than expected cant pass emmissions

Hello, you probably have a trouble code P0506 stored in the system, this will keep from passing test. real simple fix. the throttle body is dirty, this will cause not enough air around the throttle body. simply clean out the inside of the throttle body around the throttle plate and bore. you will need to use throttle body cleaner or carb cleaner

Emmissions failed due to the following. OBD Connector Integrity - malfunction indicator light (MIL) status This is for a 2000 chevy lumina

MIL status is error codes, but usually for pre 1995 vehicles. If you check engine light was on, then it would not pass emmissions. Since your vehicle is a 2000, I would suggest you take it by an autoparts store and have them read your error codes before you try to reset them. Make sure you write them down in the order they come off their scanner.

Yu can usually clear error codes by disconnecting your battery.

Have a2005 deville with the code po741 cant pass ca. smog need to what dose it takes to fix this problem

Hi,

Code P0741 = Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Performance or Stuck Off. This relates to your transmission only and has nothing to do with Exhaust emmissions.

If failed smog test, there must be an issue within your emmission system, e.g. sensors etc

You will need to have your codes read again, or have your vehicle properly inspected.


Cheers,

My 1996 Nissan Altima has had the Oxygen sensors and EGR valve replaced. It needs to pass emmissions test but evan after driving it fo rover 500 miles the The ECM will not reset eventhoughtthe fault codes...

Putting miles on them wont reset the computer. It is how many times you cycle the key on and off. And they will only reset if the problem was fixed. I don't know how many times yours has to be cycled, but some vehicles are up to 100 times. Hope this helps.

Oil leak wont pass emmissions

Tune up will not stop oil leak. Find out where leak is and fix it. I never heard of oil leak being part of an inspection? Let me guess...You're in California?

If you have trouble codes stored in your cars computer for O2 sensors a fuse will not fix it. One or all of the O2's may need to be replaced. There are test that can be done to confirm which one.
