| P0443 | Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Control Valve Circuit |
DESCRIPTION
To reduce HC emissions, evaporated fuel from the fuel tank is routed through the canister to the intake manifold for combustion in the cylinders.
The ECM changes the duty signal to the purge VSV so that the intake quantity of HC 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 | Proper response to ECM command does not occur (1 trip detection logic) |
|
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, 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
PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (PURGE VSV)
Disconnect the vacuum hose from the purge VSV.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the tester ON.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the VSV for EVAP Control. Press the right or left button.
Check if air is sucked into the port when operating the purge VSV using the intelligent tester.

INSPECT PURGE VSV (OPERATION OF PURGE VSV)
Inspect the purge VSV (see pageClick here).
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM - PURGE VSV)
Disconnect the purge VSV connector.
Disconnect the E1 ECM connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
