Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Some electrical parts were replaced and the battery was disconnected last week.

Last weekend in prep for an upcoming smog inspection I ran the BMW OBD-II drive cycle, which worked, and all the Ready tests are set.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quick question, probably somebody knows this off the top of their head. Some electrical parts were replaced and the battery was disconnected last week. All but the cat efficiency Ready status were set after normal driving. Last weekend in prep for an upcoming smog inspection I ran the BMW OBD-II drive cycle, which worked, and all the Ready tests are set. (This drive cycle is a pain) Two codes got thrown yesterday, probably because I haven't re-adapted the throttle position sensor. Codes P1517 and P1518 got thrown. They are the only codes currently active in the ECU. I'd like to clear those, do the throttle adaptation, and watch if they come back. Do *any* code clears require a complete reset of the whole ECU's Ready indicators? Or only clearing specific ones that affect Ready status?

POST 2Original post

Clearing any code, even clearing codes when none are active, resets the readiness monitors is my observation. You could just do the throttle adaptation/recalibration and then drive the car. The codes then should go away on their own and probably in short order.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
