EVAP System: 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) and turn the Techstream ON.
    6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
    7. Confirm DTCs and freeze frame data.

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

      Fig 1: DTC & Malfunctioning Area Table

      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: Go to next step 

  2. PERFORM EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE) 
    NOTE:
    • The Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) consists of five steps performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 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 more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream ON.
    3. Clear DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.
    5. After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

      HINT: 

      If no pending DTCs are displayed, perform the Monitor Confirmation (see "Diagnostic Help" menu). After this confirmation, check for pending DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed, the EVAP system is normal.

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  3. PERFORM EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM CHECK (MANUAL MODE) 
    Fig 2: EVAP Pressure Reference Graph (Manual Mode)
    GTY145417Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    NOTE:
    • In the Evaporative System Check (Manual Mode), perform the series of 5 Evaporative System Check steps 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 more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream ON.

    3. Pressurize the EVAP system to 3.2 to 3.7 kPa (24 to 28 mmHg).
    4. Apply soapy water to the piping and connecting parts of the EVAP system.
    5. Look for areas where bubbles appear. This indicates the leak point.
    6. Repair or replace the leak point.

      HINT: 

      Disconnect the hose between the canister and the fuel tank from the canister. Block the canister side and conduct an inspection. In this way, the fuel tank can be excluded as an area suspected of causing fuel leaks.

    7. Reconnect the vent hose.

  36. REPAIR OR REPLACE PARTS AND COMPONENTS INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTCS 
    1. Repair the malfunctioning areas indicated by the DTCs that had been confirmed when the vehicle was brought in.

    NEXT → See step   37 

  37. PERFORM EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE) 
    NOTE:
    • The Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) consists of five steps performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 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 more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing an Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
    1. Clear DTCs. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    2. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.
    3. After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

      HINT: 

      If no pending DTCs are found, the repair has been successfully completed.
