DTC Confirmation Procedure

NOTE:
Never remove fuel filler cap during DTC confirmation procedure.

1. PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following procedure before conducting the next test.
1.Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
2.Turn ignition switch ON.
3.Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

Component Inspection


EVAP CONTROL SYSTEM PRESSURE SENSOR

1.Remove EVAP control system pressure sensor with its harness connector connected from EVAP canister.
Exploded View.
Always replace O-ring with a new one.
2.Install a vacuum pump to EVAP control system pressure sensor.





3.Turn ignition switch ON and check output voltage between ECM
terminal 42 (EVAP control system pressure sensor signal) and ground under the following conditions.






CAUTION:
- Always calibrate the vacuum pump gauge when using it.
- Do not apply below -93.3 kPa (-700 mmHg, -27.56 inHg) or pressure over 101.3 kPa (760 mmHg, 29.92 inHg).
4.If NG, replace EVAP control system pressure sensor. Exploded View.
