Computer needs to rerun obd2 emission monitors.. anytime you disconnect the battery or clear fault codes/data you have to drive the car so all the systems can be tested again.. ford will actually set a p1000 by default notifying you that codes/data have been cleared and emmissions monitors are not ready. So basically if someone clears the check engine light a block before they go to get their car smogged to try and cheat a p0420 cat inefficiency code, well the monitors will show up as not run so itll instantly fail smog
