Problem passing e-check

[Draino]

I have a 2011 Shelby Super Snake that will not pass Ohio echeck. The message I get is Not ready for testing. Any advise appreciated

Have you recently cleared the codes? The car needs to go through a tedious process to reset all the sensors. During an emissions test, your car is allowed to have 1 sensor "not ready" ( at least in MA anyway).

If you disconnected the battery recently that will do it too. The fix is to drive it around 50 miles or so, at least with mine.

It's a lot more complex than driving 50 miles, unless you go through all the steps within those 50 miles of course.

Here's a link that describes in detail how to clear each sensor/monitor.

Only time on it is from Shelby America when they did upgrades.

Is there a specific tool to clear codes?

Well, any OBD II scanner tool should do it. Some are as cheap as $20 on eBay. As mentioned above, you can also disconnect the battery for a few minutes and then reconnect it.
I asked if you cleared the codes recently because the notice you received usually comes after someone has reset their OBD.

This is the tool I have.

Well worth the $30. It has live data reading, so I can drive around town and I can see when all the sensors are ready for testing, if I have to clear a Check Engine Light before getting an inspection sticker. (You are allowed to have one sensor "not ready/incomplete" when you have emissions testing)

Disconnecting the battery will clear the codes, but it also resets the monitors which will require preforming the OBDII Drive Cycle procedure before testing.
