VEHICLE ON-BOARD REPORTING SYSTEM FOR STATE EMISSIONS TEST

摘要

In a vehicle on-board reporting system for state emissions tests, the vehicle is provided with a removable media storage (40), a radio responder device (42), a user interface (32), and a control module (20) on board the vehicle, the control module includes a vehicle identification number (29), Diagnostic facilities (22) receives data from emission related sensing devices on the vehicle and determines a malfunction from the received data. Facilities (30) responsive to a user request reads the vehicle identification number, the stored diagnostic trouble codes, and transmits the vehicle identification number and emission information to an output of the control module. The user interface sends the user request to read; outputs the stored diagnostic trouble codes, and selectively connects one of the removable media storage device (40) and the radio responder (44) to the output of the control module so that the emission test data can be sent to a state vehicle licensing authority via recordable media or a radio transmission facility.
