CANISTER(w/o Canister Pump Module) ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM PRELIMINARY INSPECTION


    1. Check for clogs in the air filter (when not using the GTS).


      1. Start the engine.

      2. Warm up the engine.

      3. Allow the engine to idle after the engine has warmed up.

      4. After 15 minutes, open the fuel tank cap to discharge the pressure in the fuel tank.

      5. Close the fuel tank cap and allow the engine to idle for 30 seconds.

      6. A000R17

        Open the fuel tank cap again and check for inhalation sounds.

        OK
        No whooshing sounds (inhalation sound) are heard.

        Tech Tips

        If gasoline is smelled and a whooshing sound (exhalation sound) is heard, positive pressure in the fuel tank is being discharged. This does not indicate a malfunction.

      1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

      2. Start the engine.

      3. Turn the tester on.

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

      5. Open the fuel tank cap to discharge the pressure in the fuel tank.

      6. Perform the "Activate the VSV for Evap Control" Active Test while the engine is idling.

      7. Close the fuel tank cap and allow the engine to idle for 30 seconds.

      8. Open the fuel tank cap again and check for inhalation sounds.

    2. A000OXYE04

      Inspect the check valve.


      1. Close port C and check that air flows from port B when air is blown into port A.

      2. A000SC0E04

        Close port C, and then, using a vacuum pump, apply vacuum to port A, and check whether the condition is normal.
