He did according to all things as Joash his father did, i.e. for a time served God aright, but afterwards fell to idolatry, 2 Chronicles 25:14, as Joash had done, 2 Kings 12:3.

2 Kings 14:3

3 And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, yet not like David his father: he did according to all things as Joash his father did.
