OBDII readiness. 2007 Wrangler

Anyone happen to know the drive cycles for 2007 Wrangler JK? I found this http://www.obd2.com/support/reprog/downloads/chrysler/chry-imset_procedure.pdf

However it shows to 2005. As it sits now is the O2 & catalyst monitors are not complete. I did happen to follow to the T in the link for the O2. Seems like this happens every time I need a damn inspection. Usually it is the O2 & the evaporative.


We took it for a long leisurely drive this evening up to Sanger through 455 & down 377, going 55-60 most of the way. That part was hard for me.

I figured I’d ask.

Slightly related question, do you know what reset the status in the first place? Did you clear them after fixing things? Or is another gremlin causing status to be lost?

Assume you’ve already seen this:

Implications being that perhaps 55-60 is too fast…

and this, likely not what you need, since it’s ubiquitous and predates yours slightly…

The JK’s are known for being a PITA to get the cycles done. Back when it was still under warranty I lost a battery & it took 3 months to get it ready.

My battery went dead this time because I don’t really drive it. It sits on my trailer most of the time, in the past 5 years I’ve probably put 600 miles on it. Most of those are off road miles too. I’m seriously thinking of doing the low mileage waiver.

Not this one but the second one it the one I posted.

I could cheap out & get a 30 day tag but I have grown rather fond of my current plates. Those plates have been lost off my Jeep several times only to find their way back to me.

The entire time that the front license plate law was dropped from the statute, mine was missing. Only to be found by a friend of mine while on a trail. That same friend has found my front plate a couple times. Lol.

I have ripped the rear off a couple times as well including making it a bow tie shape.

can’t recommend one of these highly enough…

I find it suspicious that this one friend keeps finding your license plates.

Here is a couple pictures of my bent plate, it was the rear. Notice this was pre-beard but long goatee.


As for the illusive front plate, I hope I have resolved that. Essentially I have a safety wire tieing it to my front bumper.

So I picked up a 30 day tag on the 25th. Drove it around town for some time, on Labor Day the readiness monitors were all good. Got it inspected Wednesday night, then yesterday got it registered again. It has been like 3-4 years since it has been registered. Best part is I got to keep my plates that I’ve grown fond of.
