I take it you've replaced all the O2 sensors (I think it's 4 in this truck?) and check to make sure the wiring is good? What's the actual code you're getting?

the monitors will not run until the fault is repaired. the task manager knows that running a test with a fault present will produce a invalid result; so monitors are withheld.


ditto; post the code.
