EVAP Canister Purge Regulator Valve, Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Multimeter.
• Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
• The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) fuse OK.
• The ignition switched off.
• Voltage for the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) is supplied via the Engine Component Power Supply Relay (J757).
Procedure
- Remove the engine cover with air filter. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.
- Disconnect the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical harness connector - 1 -.
Checking internal resistance
- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) terminals 1 and 2 for resistance.
Specified value: 22.0 to 30.0 ohms.
If the specified value is not obtained:
- Replace the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80).
If the specification is obtained:
Checking voltage supply
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 to 2 for voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
If the specified value was not obtained:
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 for voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
If the specified value is not obtained:
- Check the wiring connection from terminal 2 of Fuel Pump Relay (J17) to pin 1 of N80 connector for an open circuit.
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specified value was obtained:
Check Ground (GND) activation
- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector for voltage.
- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
- Switch the ignition off.
If the specified value was not obtained:
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
- Install the test box. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J220). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Replacing ] Engine Control Module, Replacing.
- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical connector terminal 2 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J220) electrical connector terminal 64 for an open circuit.
Specified value: 1.5 ohms max.
If the specification is not obtained:
- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specification was obtained:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J220). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Replacing ] Engine Control Module, Replacing.
- Install the engine cover with air filter Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.
Final procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Readiness Code.
- End of diagnosis.
