Registration and testing

Plates, stickers, and emissions tests in McHenry

Illinois decides emissions testing by ZIP code, and McHenry’s ZIP codes (60050 and 60051) are in the testing area. Most gas vehicles need a test every two years once they are four years old, in the month the plates expire. The nearest station is Crystal Lake, 195 Liberty Rd.

  • Testing: Johnsburg has closed

    McHenry’s ZIP codes are in the testing area. The Illinois Air Team station in Johnsburg closed on Nov. 1, 2023, so the nearest one is now in Crystal Lake. Nearby Wonder Lake, ZIP 60097, is outside the testing area.

  • Check your own vehicle

    The Illinois Air Team’s eligibility check tells you by VIN or plate whether your vehicle needs a test, and its station locator lists every station.

  • Check engine light on?

    A lit check engine light fails the Illinois test. Our service department can read the code and fix the fault before you go.
