PA Emission Monitors - Not Ready - Need help!

Hi,
My 2017 Maxima SR has not be able to pass the Pennsylvania emission test as some of the monitors are saying incomplete. The dealer said i just have to drive more and have been ripping my money off as i tried testing it three times.
A local mechanic showed me that for my car these three are showing incomplete.
1. Catalyst monitor
2. Evaporative System Monitor
3. Oxygen Sensor Monitor

After some online research, I believe i should be doing Drive cycle and at the least 5 times to get the monitors to ready state. I am planning to do the same this week but i need help finding the right Drive cycle instructions for 8th Gen
maxima.


Thanks in Advance.
