Early diagnosis and repair can prevent more costly repairs in the future.</li><li>The most common reasons for emission test failures include: a malfunction in the components of the vehicle that regulate the fuel/air ratio such as the oxygen sensor and the EGR valve; a dirty air filter; misfiring spark plugs; leaks in the vacuum system; or a poor-fitting fuel cap. Many of these components can be checked and repaired during routine tune-ups. </li><li>Follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance and tune-up schedule. </li><li>Have the vehicle's oil changed regularly. </li><li>Replace the fuel cap securely after filling up. A loose fuel cap allows water and foreign material to collect, causing rust and a poor seal. On 1996 and newer model year vehicles, the &quot;Check Engine&quot; light may illuminate as a result of a loose fuel cap. If the “Check Engine” light is illuminated, try tightening the fuel cap until it clicks, then drive the vehicle until the light turns itself off.</li><li>Keep the sealing surfaces of the fuel cap clean and in good condition. When necessary, clean them with water and a damp cloth. </li><li>Keep the vehicle's tires properly inflated. </li><li>Check belts and hoses for wear.</li></ul>Note: Federal law requires that emission control systems on 1995 and newer model year vehicles be warranted by the manufacturer for two years or 24,000 miles. Federal law also requires that the OBD computer and catalytic converter on 1995 and newer vehicles be warranted by the manufacturer for eight years or 80,000 miles. Many vehicle manufacturers provide extended warranty coverage beyond what is required by federal law. Consult your vehicle owner’s warranty manual for coverage information. </p>";

This is an indication of an emission control system problem.</strong><ul><li> Your Georgia Vehicle Emission Inspection Report (VIR) will list diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) that indicate the general area of the emission control systems that do not pass inspection. Along with a diagnostic analysis, DTCs help the technician determine what repairs are necessary. Ask for an estimate and understand what work will be performed prior to authorizing repairs. Also ask if the repairs are covered under warranty. </li><li>The &quot;Check Engine&quot; light may illuminate indicating something as minor as a loose fuel cap, or a major emission control component failure. </li><li>If a DTC listed on the VIR indicates a fault with the vehicle's &quot;Evaporative System&quot;, try tightening the fuel cap until it clicks, then drive the vehicle for a few days to see if the OBD system turns the light off. </li><li>A transmission code is directly related to the emission control system. A vehicle's on-board computer will illuminate the &quot;Check Engine&quot; light if a problem with the transmission is detected. A diagnostic analysis will help identify emission-related components that need repair. A transmission malfunction can indeed prevent a vehicle from running efficiently, therefore increasing emissions. </li><li>If the &quot;Check Engine&quot; light remains on, you will need to have the problem properly diagnosed and your vehicle repaired prior to retest. The retest is free if you return to the original inspection station within 30 days. </li><li>Make sure to allow ample driving time after repairs for the vehicle to complete it's drive cycle and the OBD computer to become &quot;Ready&quot; for testing (one to two weeks, including some highway driving). </li><li>Motorists should beware of offers to turn the &quot;Check Engine&quot; light off in an attempt to pass the OBD test without making repairs. If the light has been turned off without making necessary emission-related repairs, it will come back on and the vehicle will not pass the test. The VIR will read &quot;Fail&quot; for being &quot;Not Ready.&quot; </li><li>If the &quot;Check Engine&quot; light is flashing, have your vehicle serviced immediately to avoid costly damage of your vehicle's main emission control component - the catalytic converter.</li><li> Contact your vehicle manufacturer or repair technician and inquire about recalls, manufacturer applied extended warranties, and technical service bulletins (TSBs) regarding the emission control system (research by your VIN). </li><li>If emission-related repairs happen to exceed $787, you may qualify for a Repair Waiver.

A loose gas cap allows water and foreign material to collect, causing rust and a poor seal. </li></ul>It should be noted that an inspector may reject a vehicle for testing if it is considered unsafe to test.
