This standardized many of the onboard emissions protocols and codes and allowed states to perform onboard emissions testing. As time passed, even large trucks and motorcycles adopted this same method to test the emissions status of a vehicle. The freeze frame data is stored when a test fails or a DTC is set.

Unfortunately, a misfire also will cause a considerable increase in hydrocarbon (HC) emissions, which can cause a vehicle to fail an emissions test. Then, the crankshaft rotational velocity and acceleration are compared in the event of a power loss from each cylinder. These emissions protocols are called monitors.

Misfires can be one of the most ambiguous codes in a vehicle because they can be caused by fuel, spark, or mechanical problems, making them tricky to diagnose. Misfires also significantly increase hydrocarbon emissions, which can cause a vehicle to fail an emissions test. But what exactly is a misfire?

So when the leak detection pump in the exhaust system suspects a small EVAP leak event, it immediately turns the Check Engine Light on. A Failed Emissions Test or Smoke Test One of the main indicators of the P0442 code is a failed emission test or a smoke test.
