Default 2001 galant OBD2 readiness monitors.

Hey guys, i just joined a forum a few days ago, so take it easy on me .


ANyway, i bought a 2001 galant and when i try to take it through emissions it says that catalyst, egr, and evap monitors are not ready. Is there a certain drive cycle i need to go thru? I disconnected the battery on it last week to fix my temp gauge in the gauge cluster, so i figured the computer would have reset by now?

Anything special i need to do? Is the radio connected to the obd system like some german cars?


I'm not new to cars, i've been in the automotive industry since i was like 18 (about 6 yrs lol), so i can fix pretty much anything myself. I did lots of research but wasn't able to come up with anything.

Mitsubishi told me to drive it til the computer decides to work properly

thanks

Problem is i've driven it 2 weeks since the last time i reset it, and that's 30+ miles a day. So i don't understand it.

Is there any diagrams that show obd wiring/diagrams etc.?

there is a plug hanging down with a green wire coming out of it, and it's right by obd2 port, i haven't had time to see what it does.
