In order to legally drive in California, you need to have a smog check on all your vehicles that are older than 6 years once every two years, or every year if you own a high-polluting vehicle. But how do smog tests work? How is the vehicle inspection actually done? Only licensed technicians are able to perform a vehicle inspection. They will need to attach some equipment to your vehicle to measure pollutants.
A certified technician will conduct a visual inspection of your vehicle’s emission control components. This includes checking the exhaust system, fuel system, and other related components for any signs of tampering or damage.
This involves connecting a probe to the vehicle’s tailpipe to measure the levels of pollutants emitted during operation. The technician will run the vehicle at different speeds and loads to simulate driving conditions and measure emissions accordingly.
For newer vehicles, a diagnostic scanner is used to check for emissions system malfunctions. This scanner retrieves data related to the vehicle’s emissions system and checks for any trouble codes or malfunctions.
