The OSR will display the supported monitors on the vehicle and the status of all monitors (complete or not complete) at that time. If any monitor is not complete, the scan tools will identify which monitor has not completed. Fuel, misfire and comprehensive components are continuous type monitors and won't display complete or not complete.

- Select GENERIC OBD II FUNCTIONS.

NOTE: If all the monitors are not complete, the OSR test will automatically be displayed along with a message.
