Welcome to my hell. I had to pay the dealer about $200 to do a drive test to get the computer into ready state. I think they drive it around doing the drive cycle but with the computer connected running them through the procedure, one check item at a time. This is the second DEQ time I've had to do that and they said that early OBDII / Bosch computers also used in Volvos of our year, have the same problem. It's like the computers are WAY too picky about when they will log a tests as complete.
I made sure I put in a new battery before I did this because I want the computer to still be ready in 2 years when I go through deq again.
it's not the 2000 miles it is a series of specific driving. reversing. slow. stopping. cold starting. fast driving. etc. you could drive 10,000 miles and not hit all these points.
good luck. but let us know if you can accomplish anything with your OBD scanner (sounds like you have one)
