Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80), Checking

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80), checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Multimeter.

• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

• Fuse (SB12) OK.

• The Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay (J271) OK.

• The ignition switched off.

• Voltage for the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) is supplied by the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay (J271).

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623), replacing ] Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623).

Start diagnosis

- Remove the engine cover with air filter.

- 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 Ground (GND) for voltage.





- Operate the starter briefly.

Specified value: battery voltage.

If the specified value is not obtained:

- Check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay (J271) terminal 2/87 for an open circuit, short circuit to each other, Battery (+), and Ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking wiring

If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.

- Install the test box.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623), replacing ] Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623).

- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical harness connector terminal 2 to Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector T60 terminal 5 for resistance.










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, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specification was obtained:

- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

- Perform a road test to verify repair.

If the DTC does not return:

Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Engine.

- End diagnosis.

If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623), replacing ] Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623).

- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

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 ] Engine.

End of diagnosis
