Note

In the EVAP system of this vehicle, turning on the vent valve does not seal off the EVAP system. To check for leaks in the EVAP system, disconnect the air inlet vent hose and apply pressure from the atmospheric side of the canister.

While the engine is running, if a predetermined condition (closed-loop, etc.) is met, the purge VSV is opened by the ECM and fuel vapors stored in the canister are purged to the intake air surge tank assembly. The ECM changes the duty cycle ratio of the purge VSV to control purge flow volume.

The purge flow volume is also determined by the intake pressure. Atmospheric pressure is allowed into the canister through the vent valve to ensure that the purge flow is maintained when negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the canister.

The following two monitors run to confirm appropriate EVAP system operation.

  1. Key-off monitor

    This monitor checks for EVAP (evaporative emission) system leaks and canister pump module malfunctions. The monitor starts 5 hours* after the engine switch is turned off. At least 5 hours are required for the fuel to cool down to stabilize the EVAP pressure, thus making the EVAP system monitor more accurate.

    The leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the pressure is measured. Finally, the ECM monitors for leaks from the EVAP system, and malfunctions in both the canister pump module and purge VSV based on the EVAP pressure.

    Tech Tips

    *: If the engine coolant temperature is not less than 35°C (95°F) 5 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not less than 35°C (95°F) 7 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.

  2. Purge flow monitor

    The purge flow monitor consists of the 2 monitors. The 1st monitor is conducted every time and the 2nd monitor is activated if necessary.

    • The 1st monitor

      While the engine is running and the purge VSV (Vacuum Switching Valve) is on (open), the ECM monitors the purge flow by measuring the EVAP pressure change. If negative pressure is not created, the ECM begins the 2nd monitor.

    • The 2nd monitor

      The vent valve is turned on (closed) and the EVAP pressure is then measured. If the variation in the pressure is less than 0.15 kPa(gauge) [1.125 mmHg(gauge)], the ECM interprets this as the purge VSV being stuck closed, illuminates the MIL and stores DTC P0441 (2 trip detection logic).

    • Atmospheric pressure check:

      • In order to ensure reliable malfunction detection, the variation between the atmospheric pressures, before and after of the purge flow monitor, is measured by the ECM.

    Component Operation
    Canister Contains activated charcoal to absorb EVAP (Evaporative Emissions) generated in fuel tank.
    Cut-off valve Located in fuel tank. Valve floats and closes when fuel tank is 100% full.
    Purge VSV (Vacuum Switching Valve) Opens or closes line between canister and intake air surge tank assembly. ECM uses purge VSV to control EVAP purge flow. In order to discharge EVAP absorbed by canister to intake air surge tank assembly, ECM opens purge VSV. EVAP discharge volume to intake air surge tank assembly controlled by purge VSV duty cycle (current-carrying time). (Open: on, Close: off)
    Roll-over valve Located in fuel tank. Valve closes by its own weight when vehicle overturns to prevent fuel from spilling out.
    Soak timer Built into ECM. To ensure accurate EVAP monitor, measures 5 hours (+/-15 min) after engine switch is turned off. This allows fuel to cool down, stabilizing EVAP pressure. When approximately 5 hours elapsed, ECM activates (refer to fig. 3).
    Canister pump module Consists of (a) to (d) below. Canister pump module cannot be disassembled.
    (a) Vent valve Vents and closes EVAP system. When ECM turns valve on, EVAP system is closed. When ECM turns valve off, EVAP system is vented. Negative pressure (vacuum) is created in EVAP system to check for EVAP leaks by closing purge VSV, turning on vent valve (closing it) and operating leak detection pump (refer to fig. 1).
    (b) Canister pressure sensor Indicates pressure as voltages. ECM supplies regulated 5 V to pressure sensor, and uses feedback from sensor to monitor EVAP system pressure (refer to fig. 2).
    (c) Leak detection pump Creates negative pressure (vacuum) in EVAP system for leak check.
    (d) Reference orifice Has opening with 0.02 inch diameter. Vacuum is produced through orifice by closing purge VSV, turning off vent valve and operating leak detection pump, to monitor reference pressure. Reference pressure is used when checking for small EVAP leaks.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

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

  • The Techstream is required to conduct the following diagnostic troubleshooting procedure.

Tech Tips

  • Using the Techstream monitor results enables the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system to be confirmed.

  • Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. 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. CONFIRM DTC

    1. Turn the engine switch off and wait for 10 seconds.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the engine switch off and wait for 10 seconds.

    4. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    5. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    6. Turn the Techstream on.

    7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

    8. Confirm the DTCs and freeze frame data.

      If any EVAP system DTCs are stored, the malfunctioning area can be determined using the table below.

      A011SEBE03

      Note

      If the reference pressure difference between the first and second checks is greater than the specification, all the DTCs relating to the reference pressure (P043E, P043F, P2401, P2402 and P2419) are stored.

    NEXT
  2. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE)

    Note

    • The Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) consists of 6 steps performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 24 minutes.

    • Do not perform the Evaporative System Check when the fuel tank is more than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed, making the fuel tank leak check unavailable.

    • Do not run the engine during this operation.

    • When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or higher, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature less than 35°C (95°F).

    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the Techstream on.

    4. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    5. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.

    6. After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

      Tech Tips

      If no pending DTCs are displayed, perform the Confirmation Driving Pattern. After this confirmation, check for pending DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed, the EVAP system is normal.

    NEXT
  3. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (MANUAL MODE)

    A011SWPE10

    Note

    • In the Evaporative System Check (Manual Mode), the series of 6 Evaporative System Check steps are performed manually using the Techstream.

    • Do not perform the Evaporative System Check when the fuel tank is more than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed, making the fuel tank leak check unavailable.

    • Do not run the engine during this operation.

    • When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or higher, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature less than 35°C (95°F).

    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the Techstream on.

      • The intake air temperature is 4.4°C (40°F) or higher.

    2. Monitor Conditions

      1. Release the pressure from the fuel tank by removing and reinstalling the fuel cap.

      2. Warm the engine up until the engine coolant temperature reaches higher than 75°C (167°F).

      3. Increase the engine speed to 3000 rpm once.

      4. Allow the engine to idle and turn the A/C switch on for 1 minute.
