Leak Detection Solenoid: Testing and Inspection

1. REMOVE LH FRONT FENDER LINER.
2. REMOVE VSV.
- Disconnect the VSV connector.
- Disconnect the 3 EVAP hoses from the VSV.
- Remove the screw and VSV.


3. INSPECT VSV.





- Inspect VSV for open circuit Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity between the terminals.

Resistance: At 20 °C (68 °F) 37 - 44 ohms

- If there is no continuity, replace the VSV.





- Inspect VSV for ground Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity between each terminal and the body.
- If there is continuity. replace the VSV.





- Inspect VSV operation.
- Check that the air flows from port E to G.





- Apply battery voltage across the terminals.
- Check that the air flows from port E to F.
- If operation is not as specified, replace the VSV.
4. REINSTALL VSV.
5. REINSTALL LH FRONT FENDER LINER.
