Request Control On-Board System - Mode $08: EVAP Test

Mode $08 function lets you perform an EVAP Test or Particulate Filter Regeneration and Inducement System Reinitialization.

EVAP Test – lets you initiate an EVAP test for the vehicle’s EVAP system.
Particulate Filter Regeneration – this service requests the vehicle to initiate a particulate filter (PF) regeneration. The vehicle manufacturer is responsible for determining the criteria to enable, start and stop the test, such as engine running, vehicle speed, or engine rpm.
Inducement System Reinitialization – this service requests the vehicle to initiate a reinitialization of the inducement system. The vehicle manufacturer is responsible for determining the criteria to enable, start and stop the test, such as engine running, vehicle speed, or engine rpm.

NOTE: The 5610 does not perform the EVAP test, but signals to vehicle’s onboard computer to initiate the test. The vehicle manufacturer determines the criteria and method for stopping the test once it has been started. Refer to the vehicle’s service repair manual to determine the procedures necessary to stop the test.
