I failed the readiness test. It's actually the software that is the issue because they turned off the O2 sensors.

its all in the ecu. if you have a tune of some sort then a tuner should be able to force the readiness codes.

ive gone through the same thing with my car twice. failed both times and just hooked up my laptop and forced readiness through some open source tuning software. gotta love open source.

visual is another story though.....

I am having the tuner flash me with an updated software so we will see how works. Apparently they completely turned off the O2 sensors. Now I have to drive it a couple miles to the set the sensors to ready. I hope this works.

it should take about a full gas tank to set the readiness. just go to like an advance auto parts and borrow their obd2 scanner and itll tell you if its ready or not
