Background: 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe, I had to replace the battery. Unfortunately this was right before I took it into inspection. Apparently the inspection computer talks to the car computer and looks at its readiness test results. They all reset after changing a battery so they were "Not Ready" or "INC" therefore I failed the inspection. Not a problem, I had 45 days for the tests to complete. All but one has completed, that one is the Catalyst Monitor. I've driven about 2500 miles over the last month and the test still has not completed. 500 of the 2500 miles were a at one time. Is this normal? What can I check. I has my own scanner now so is there anything I can look for. There are no faults registered. Please Help.
