I failed a couple days ago comunacation error but whats different with mine is the mechanic hooked a handheld to it after and it was reading fine then did the same thing on the handheld I came home checked my obd port and everything looks perfect? Its an 04 gt supercharged tuned by adam at pops racing so im going to try one more shop for inspection, if that doesnt work ill have to give adam a call I guess

:nono:I have an 01 supercharged Mustang. I have failed NYS inspection in 2014 due to communication fail.
I have a tune 1, tune 2, and stock position for the chip.
Does anyone know if I change it to stock and put some miles on my car if it will pass???
This is BS ...... the car is like new, there is nothing wrong with it.

Anyone have a 2011+ with no cats fail? I see that Tim was able to pass with no cats so maybe that is good news for me.

Sean, it has a lot to do with the tune. I have no idea how the tuners are making it so cars can pass now, but some guys have went for new tunes and told the tuner about why they are failing, or what they are worried about, and they seem to fix it.

Got my 2000 GT inspected today and it passed. Vortech S/C plus bolt-ons. Tuned by Mustang Magic. As Far as I know there are no monitors turned off. I have high flow cats with CO2 sensors in place and working. No DTCs. To top it off it was at a Nissan dealership which hardly ever inspects cars with custom tunes.

Just passed my inspection with flying colors. I pulled the car in bay, they scanned my registration, asked the milage, I paid $10 inspection fee and out the door I went with a nice new yellow sticker.

sounds like this is a new car, first inspection, if I'm correct, it was not connected to the system and is meaningless in this thread. :nono:

It's an 86...and it DOES have OBDII, but it was still a pull in and pay the man deal just like the old days. My point is, new cars and the laws are making it harder for people like us to modify their vehicle. What are people gonna do with that newer stang when you can't get it to pass and the state stops offering exceptions next year? Remove tune, return to stock parts just for inspection? Thats rediculous... but thats basically what it is coming to. I think it sucks that you guys have to deal with that BS.

I have my inspectors license. My buddy has an 06 gt with a couple of mods and an sct tune. with the tune and the high flow cats, the MIL kept coming on for rear O2 codes, so we turned them off. I have inspected this car for the past 3 years this way no problem. This year, I got it to pass by never turning the car off. I had him pull up to the bay, I hopped in, and let it idle. the machine tells you to turn the car off for 15 seconds, don't do it. I believe that is the secret. Let it idle the whole time and it should be ok, at least it worked for us and his rear O2's are turned off.

I passed inspection today. Got new tune with rear o2 sensors turned on. I also purchased new obd2 scanner to tell me when monitors were ready.
