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).
    6. Turn the Techstream on.
    7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
    8. Confirm DTCs and freeze frame data.

      If any EVAP system DTCs are set, the malfunctioning area can be determined using the following 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:
    • In the Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode), a series of consists of 5 steps are 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 fuel temperature below 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. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    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.

      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.

    • 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 fuel temperature below 35°C (95°F).

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

  29. REPLACE CANISTER 
    1. Replace the canister assembly. Refer to REMOVAL .
      NOTE:

      When replacing the canister, check the canister pump module interior and related pipes for water, fuel and other liquids. If liquids are present, check for disconnections and/or cracks in the following: 1) the pipe from the air inlet port to the canister pump module; 2) the canister filter; and 3) the fuel tank vent hose.

  31. REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    NEXT → See step   36 

  32. REPLACE EVAP HOSE (INTAKE AIR SURGE TANK ASSEMBLY - PURGE VSV) 

    NEXT → See step   36 

  33. INSPECT INTAKE AIR SURGE TANK ASSEMBLY (EVAP PURGE PORT) 
    1. Check that the EVAP purge port of the intake air surge tank assembly is not clogged. If necessary, replace the intake air surge tank assembly.

  34. REPLACE ECM 
    1. Replace the ECM. Refer to REMOVAL .

    NEXT → See step   36 

  35. 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: Go to next step 

  36. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE) 
    NOTE:
    • In the Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode), a series of consists of 5 steps are 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 in this step.
    • 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 fuel temperature below 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. Refer to DTC CHECK / CLEAR .
    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 / Pending.

      HINT: 

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