EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. VISUALLY INSPECT HOSES, CONNECTIONS AND GASKETS


    1. Visually check that the hoses, connections and gaskets have no cracks, leaks or damage.

      Note


      • Detachment or other problems with the engine oil dipstick, filler cap, ventilation hose or other components may cause the engine to run improperly.

      • Air suction caused by disconnections, looseness or cracks in any part of the air induction system between the throttle body and cylinder head will cause engine failure or engine malfunctions.

      If any defects are found, replace parts as necessary.

  2. INSPECT EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Start the engine.

    3. Put the engine in inspection mode.

      Disconnect the fuel vapor feed hose from the purge valve (purge VSV).

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


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Active Test
      Tester Display
      Activate the VSV for Evap Control

    8. Check that vacuum occurs at the purge valve (purge VSV) port.

    9. If vacuum does not occur, check the following items.


      • Purge valve (purge VSV)

      • Clogging in the fuel vapor feed hose that connects the intake manifold and purge valve (purge VSV)

      • Voltage from the ECM PRG terminal

    10. Exit Active Test mode and reconnect the fuel vapor feed hose to the purge valve (purge VSV).

    11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / EVAP Purge VSV.


      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Data List
      Tester Display
      EVAP Purge VSV

    12. Warm up the engine and drive the vehicle.

    13. Confirm that the purge valve (purge VSV) opens.

      If the purge valve (purge VSV) does not open, replace the purge valve (purge VSV), wire harness or ECM.
