Diagnostic Procedures

  1. Perform POWERTRAIN ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM CHECK , then go to next step.
  2. Using scan tool, check if DTC P1645 is stored as history DTC. If DTC P1645 is set, diagnose DTC P1645 first. If DTC P1645 is not set, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect EVAP purge line from EVAP purge solenoid valve. Install a vacuum gauge to solenoid purge port. Start and operate engine at idle. After 30 seconds, command EVAP purge solenoid valve on and off using a scan tool. If vacuum gauge indicates a vacuum reading, go to next step. If vacuum gauge does not indicate a vacuum reading, fault is present. See DIAGNOSTIC AIDS.
