DTC P0455: Notes

DTC P0455 [L3] CHART

DTC P0455	Evaporative emission control system leak detected (gross leak)
DETECTION CONDITION	PCM measures the pump load current (EVAP line pressure) when the specified period has passed after EVAP system is sealed when monitoring conditions are met. If the load does not reach the reference current value within the specified period, PCM determines that the EVAP system has gross leak. MONITORING CONDITION IG switch OFF IAT: 5-35 °C {41-95 °F} Battery voltage: 11 V or above Atmospheric pressure: 72.2 kPa {542 mmHg, 21.3 inHg} or above Fuel tank level: 15-85% Time from engine off: 5 h 10 min Diagnostic support note This is an intermittent monitor (Evaporative emission system). MIL illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM. PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA is available. DTC is stored in the PCM memory. DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULT is available.
POSSIBLE CAUSE	Purge solenoid valve malfunction EVAP system leak detection pump malfunction Loose, missing or defective fuel filler cap Charcoal canister malfunction Fuel tank malfunction EVAP hose damaged or loose Poor connection or damaged vacuum hose
