1. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.

Are all connectors good? 

Yes: Go to next

No: Repair or replace it.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF position and disconnect PCSV harness connector.
2. Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the PCSV.

• Refer to  Specifications   . 
• Refer to  EVAPORATIVE (EVAP) CANISTER PURGE SOLENOID VALVE  of Evaporative emission control system. 

Is the PCSV normal? 

Yes: Go to next

No: Replace it.

1. Turn ignition switch to ON position.
2. Measure voltage between terminal 1 of the PCSV harness connector and chassis ground.
