RELATED DTCS
If any EVAP system DTCs are set, the malfunctioning area can be determined using the table below.
NOTICE:
If the 0.02 inch reference pressure difference between the first and second checks is greater than the specification, the DTCs corresponding to the reference pressure (P043E, P043F, P0441, P0455, P0456, P2401 and P2420) will all be stored.
DESCRIPTION
While the engine is running, if a predetermined condition (closed- loop etc.) is met, the EVAP VSV is opened by the ECM and stored fuel vapors in the canister are purged to the intake manifold. The ECM changes the duty cycle ratio of the EVAP VSV to control purge flow volume.
The purge flow volume is also determined by the intake manifold pressure. Atmospheric pressure is allowed into the canister through the vent valve to ensure that the purge flow is maintained when the negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the canister.
The following two monitors run to confirm appropriate EVAP system operation.
1. Key-off monitor
This monitor checks for Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system leaks and pump module malfunctions. The monitor starts 5 hours* after the engine switch is turned off. More than 5 hours are required to allow the fuel to cool down to stabilize the Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP), thus making the EVAP system monitor more accurate.
The electric vacuum pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the pressure is measured. Finally, the ECM monitors for leaks from the EVAP system and malfunctions in both the pump module and EVAP VSV, based on the EVAP pressure.
HINT
*: If the engine coolant temperature is not below 35°C 5 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not below 35°C 7 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.
2. Purge flow monitor
The purge flow monitor consists of the two monitors. The 1st monitor is conducted every time and the 2nd monitor is conducted if necessary.
* The 1st monitor
* While the engine is running and the purge Vacuum Switching Valve (VSV) is ON (open), the ECM monitors the purge flow by measuring the EVAP pressure change. If negative pressure is not created, the ECM begins the 2nd monitor.
* The 2nd monitor
* The vent valve turned OFF (open) and the EVAP pressure is then measured. If the variation in the pressure is less than 0.5 kPa (3.75 mmHg), the ECM interprets this as the EVAP VSV being stuck closed, and illuminates the MIL and sets DTC P0441 (2 trip detection logic).
* Atmospheric pressure check:
* In order to ensure reliable malfunction detection, the variation between the atmospheric pressures, before and after conduction of the purge flow monitor, is measured by the ECM.

Refer to DTC P0451 P0451.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE:
Techstream is required to conduct the following diagnostic troubleshooting procedure.
HINT
* Using Techstream monitor results enable the EVAP system to be confirmed.
* Read freeze frame data using Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air/fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction Freeze Frame Data.
PROCEDURE
1. CONFIRM DTC
(a) Turn the engine switch off and wait for 10 seconds.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the engine switch off and wait for 10 seconds.
(d) Connect Techstream to the DLC3.
(e) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

If any EVAP system DTCs are set, the malfunctioning area can be determined using the table below.
NOTICE:
If the 0.02 inch reference pressure difference between the first and second checks is greater than the specification, the DTCs corresponding to the reference pressure (P043E, P043F, P0441, P0455, P0456, P2401 and P2420) will all be stored.

2. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE)
NOTICE:
* In the Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode), the series of 5 Evaporative System Check step are performed automatically. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 minutes.
* Do not perform the Evaporative System Check when the fuel tank is more than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed, making the leak check of the fuel tank unavailable.
* Do not run the engine in this step.
* When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
(a) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
(b) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.
(c) After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes / Pending.
