I/M refers to Inspection and Maintenance that is legislated by the Government to
meet federal clean-air standards. I/M Readiness indicates whether or not the
various emissions-related systems on the vehicle are operating properly and are
ready for Inspection and Maintenance testing.
The purpose of the I/M Readiness Monitor Status is to indicate which of the
