Conditions

EVAP Tank Pressure Sensor. Value too high when Depressurized.





Fault symptoms
- Market US/CA: CHECK ENGINE

On-Board Diagnostics

Type of diagnosis:
- Once per driving cycle. Interrupted when fault criteria fulfilled or OK reported. Restarts next driving cycle.

Enable criteria:
- General conditions for this trouble code: Atmospheric pressure must exceed 72 kPa and the engine coolant and intake air temperature must exceed -7 °C.
- Accepted transition diagnosis of oxygen sensor 1. Purge active. Idling. Max. one change in status of brake light switch. Purge adaptation higher than -7%. Car stationary for 8 s.
The diagnosis will start once the above conditions have been fulfilled. If the diagnosis is interrupted then the speed must exceed 0 on one occasion before it is allowed to restart.

Fault criteria:





- Tank pressure exceeding 1.8 kPa.

Dependents:
- P0444, P0445, P0501, P0502, P0506, P0507, P1444, P1445, P1576 and P1577.

System reaction to a fault:
- Integrity diagnosis of purge system blocked.

OK report:
- Diagnoses for P1451, P1452 and P1453 performed once and fault criteria not fulfilled. Fault criteria for P0452 or P0453 not fulfilled.

Fault handling: Fault Handling III, Other Emission-Related Comp. & Function
- Type III.

Diagnostic help
Fault diagnosis concerns checking tank pressure equalization to atmosphere or electrical fault in connecting leads or in the sensor.

Diagnostic tool functions related to this fault are:
- Diagnostic status for the diagnosis.
- Pressure sensor value, unit kPa. The value should be about 0 kPa when the filler cap is removed.

Check the wiring
Jiggle the leads and in-line connectors at various points and in different directions to detect any intermittent breaks or short circuit in the wiring. Observe the multimeter, test lamp or diagnostic tool while doing this.
