1998-2000 ELANTRA And 1998-2001 TIBURON DRIVE CYCLE: The chart on page 11 of this TSB shows the drive

cycle for the 1998-2000 Elantra and 1998-2001 Tiburon. The information below discusses, step-bystep, the procedure to be followed. IMPORTANT In the case of the 1998-2000 Elantra and 1998-2001 Tiburon, in order to set the CATALYST, EVAP. PURGE, O2 SENSOR and O2 SENSOR HEATER monitors to READY, only the diagnosis for each of the monitors need to be "run" on any drive (It is still necessary to run the diagnosis on at least two separate drives). That is, these four monitors are NOT linked together. They can be run independently and will display as READY or NOT READY independently (unlike the 1996 MY and 1997 MY Elantra and Tiburon). The drive cycle described below covers the condition required to run ALL four diagnostic tests in one drive. STEP 1: (STARTING PROCEDURE) *Check to make sure that there are no DTCs stored in the ECM (using the HiScan Pro) and that the Check Engine Light is OFF. If there is a DTC, repair the vehicle first. *Check the Readiness Status to note which monitors are NOT READY. *Start the engine. *Warm up the engine (coolant temperature at least 176 degrees F). *Turn OFF the A/C. STEP 2: (TRANSIENT TO STEADY STATE DRIVING) *Connect the Hi-Scan Pro and go to the current data menu. The two items to monitor during the drive cycle are the Engine RPM and Engine Load (displayed in milliseconds). *IMPORTANT: Two people should conduct the drive cycle, one person to drive and the other person to monitor the Hi-Scan Pro readings and keep track of the driving time. *Drive the vehicle to a light traffic road where the required steady state driving condition can be duplicated. *Any kind of driving is OK before the steady state driving is conducted. STEP 3: (STEADY STATE DRIVING - THIS IS THE MAIN PART OF THE DRIVE CYCLE) *Drive the vehicle at a steady state where the engine speed is between 2,000 and 2,400 RPM in high gear (5th speed in a manual transmission equipped

vehicle and "D" position in an automatic). The engine load should be between 2.0 and 3.0 ms. *To drive the vehicle in this steady state mode, very little throttle is required. *Drive in the Steady State Mode for a minimum of 10 minutes. *Note: During this phase of the drive cycle, if the vehicle "falls out" of the steady state zone criteria (in terms of engine RPM and engine load), the accumulated time does not increase; however, there is no need to restart the steady state mode. 10 minutes is the required ACCUMULATED time. If the vehicle "falls out" of the criteria, simply stop counting the time and restart counting the time when able to again meet the required criteria. STEP 4: (TRANSIENT FROM STEADY STATE DRIVING TO AN IDLE STATE - ANY KIND OF DRIVING IS OK DURING THIS STEP) *After accumulating at least 10 minutes of Steady State driving, Bring the vehicle to a stop at a location where the vehicle may idle. STEP 5: (IDLE-STATE - THIS IS THE LAST PHASE OF THE DRIVE CYCLE) *After coming to a stop, allow the vehicle to idle for one minute (the transmission may be placed in Neutral or Park). *After one minute of idling, tip the throttle in and out (to take the engine out of idle-state briefly). *Allow the vehicle to idle for one more minute. STEP 6: (ENGINE STOP) *The drive cycle is completed. *Turn off the engine (key in the OFF position) and wait 30 seconds. *After 30 seconds, restart the engine. *IF ONLY ONE DRIVE CYCLE HAS BEEN COMPLETED, CONDUCT ONE MORE DRIVE CYCLE. *After the conclusion of the second drive cycle, turn the key to the ON position. Check to see if the Readiness Monitors indicate READY (or COMPLEATED). *If not, then check to see if there are any DTC codes or if the Check Engine Light is ON. If yes, then repair the vehicle. After repair is completed, conduct the drive cycle two times. *If, after the conclusion of the second drive cycle, the Readiness Monitors for still indicate NOT READY (or NOT COMPLETED), then conduct the drive cycle one more time and check the Readiness Codes again (the previous attempts at the drive cycle may not have been successfully completed).
