Certified Ford Service Department with Genuine OEM Parts
The first step of an emissions test is to review the onboard diagnostic (OBD) system for trouble codes. The OBD sensors constantly monitor exhaust fumes to detect problems from the fuel induction system to the exhaust. An OBD free of trouble codes signals that the vehicle is operating at factory specifications.
