SFI SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0443

DTC Code DTC Name
P0443 Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Control Valve Circuit

DESCRIPTION

To reduce hydrocarbon emissions, fuel vapor from the fuel tank is routed through a charcoal canister to the intake manifold for combustion in the cylinders.

The ECM changes the duty signals to the purge VSV so that the intake amount of hydrocarbon emissions is appropriate for the driving conditions (engine load, engine speed, vehicle speed, etc.) after the engine is warmed up.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0443

All of the following conditions (a) and (b) are met (1 trip detection logic)

(a) The target control value and actual control value do not match for 10 seconds or more.

(b) The target control value and actual control value do not match for 80 times or more.


  • Open or short in purge VSV circuit

  • Purge VSV

  • ECM

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

A01VKEWE01

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.

  3. Clear DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).

  4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.

  6. Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature is 75°C (167°F) or higher [A].

    Tech Tips

    The A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off.

  7. Idle the engine for 15 minutes or more [B].

    Tech Tips

    Check the EVAP (Purge) VSV item in the Data List. When the value of this item is between 5 and 95%, the judgment will be performed.

  8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC [C].

  9. Read pending DTCs.

    Tech Tips


    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.

  10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.

  11. Input the DTC: P0443.

  12. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Tester Display Description
    NORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System normal

    ABNORMAL
    • DTC judgment completed

    • System abnormal

    INCOMPLETE
    • DTC judgment not completed

    • Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    N/A
    • Unable to perform DTC judgment

    • Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit

    Tech Tips


    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.

    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform steps [D] and [E].

  13. Drive the vehicle at a constant speed between 40 and 60 km/h (25 and 37 mph) for 10 minutes [D].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

  14. Check the DTC judgment result [E].

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note

Inspect the fuse for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ACTIVATE THE PURGE VSV CONTROL)


    1. A01VHTJE02
      Text in Illustration
      *a VSV is on
      *b VSV is off

      Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Disconnect the charcoal canister side vacuum hose from the purge VSV from the charcoal canister.

    3. Start the engine.

    4. Turn the tester on.

    5. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Activate the VSV for Evap Control.

    6. When the purge VSV is operated using the intelligent tester, check whether the port of the purge VSV applies suction to your finger.

      OK
      Tester Operation Specified Condition
      ON Purge VSV port applies suction to finger
      OFF Purge VSV port applies no suction to finger

    OK
    NG
  2. INSPECT PURGE VSV


    1. Inspect the purge VSV Click here.


    NG
    OK
  3. CHECK TERMINAL VOLTAGE (POWER SOURCE OF PURGE VSV)

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Purge VSV)

      Disconnect the purge VSV connector.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      B102-1 - Body ground Ignition switch ON 11 to 14 V

    NG
    OK
  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PURGE VSV - ECM)
