4GR-FSE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0450: Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor / Switch

DTC P0450 - Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor / Switch

DTC P0451 - Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor Range / Performance

DTC P0452 - Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor / Switch Low Input

DTC P0453 - Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor / Switch High Input

DTC SUMMARY





HINT:
The pressure sensor is built into the pump module.

DESCRIPTION

The circuit description can be found in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) System EVAP System.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

1 DTC P0450: Pressure sensor voltage abnormal fluctuation
If the pressure sensor output voltage rapidly fluctuates between less than 0.45 V and more than 4.9 V, the ECM interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1 trip detection logic).





2 DTC P0451: Pressure sensor noising or stuck
If the pressure sensor output voltage fluctuates rapidly for 10 seconds, the ECM stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM interprets this as noise from the pressure sensor, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
Alternatively, if the sensor output voltage does not change for 10 seconds, the ECM interprets this as the sensor being stuck, and stops the monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
(Both the malfunctions are detected by 2 trip detection logic).
3 DTC P0452: Pressure sensor voltage low
If the pressure sensor output voltage is below 0.45 V, the ECM interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1 trip detection logic).
4 DTC P0453: Pressure sensor voltage high
If the pressure sensor voltage output is 4.9 V or more, the ECM interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1 trip detection logic).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE:
- When a vehicle is brought into a workshop, leave it as it is. Do not change the vehicle condition. For example, do not tighten the fuel tank cap.
- Do not disassemble the pump module.
- Techstream is required to conduct the following diagnostic troubleshooting procedure.

PROCEDURE

1. CONFIRM DTC AND EVAP PRESSURE
(a) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (do not start the engine).
(c) Turn the tester on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
(e) Read DTCs.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / EVAP / Vapor Pressure Pump.
(g) Read the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) pressure displayed on the tester.
Result:






C -- GO TO EVAP INSPECTION PROCEDURE
B -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PUMP MODULE - ECM)
A -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PUMP MODULE - ECM)




(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Disconnect the A6 ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance between the PPMP terminal of the ECM connector and body ground.
Result:





(d) Reconnect the ECM connector.
B -- REPLACE ECM
A -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PUMP MODULE - ECM)




(a) Disconnect the Q49 canister pump module pump module connector.
(b) Disconnect the A6 ECM connector.
(c) Measure the resistance between the PPMP terminal of the ECM connector and body ground.
Result:





(d) Reconnect the canister pump module connector.
(e) Reconnect the ECM connector.
B -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A -- REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PUMP MODULE - ECM)




(a) Disconnect the Q49 canister pump module connector.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(c) Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:






Standard resistance:






Result:





(d) Reconnect the canister pump module connector.
B -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A -- REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
5. REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT (AFTER REPAIR)
6. REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
HINT:
If the exhaust tail pipe has been removed, go to the next step before reinstalling it.

NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT (AFTER REPAIR)
7. REPLACE ECM
NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT (AFTER REPAIR)
8. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT (AFTER REPAIR)
(a) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
(c) Wait for at least 60 seconds.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes / Pending.
HINT:
If no pending DTC is displayed on the tester, the repair has been successfully completed.
