DTC Confirmation Test (Overall Function Check)

NOTE: Use the following test to check overall function of EVAP purge flow monitoring system. During this test, first trip DTC may not be confirmed.

Malfunction is detected when EVAP system is not functioning properly or there is a leak in hose between EVAP Control System Pressure Sensor (EVAP-CSPS) and intake manifold. Possible causes are:

EVAP Canister Purge Volume Control Valve (EVAP-CPVCV) stuck closed.
Faulty EVAP-CSPS or circuit.
Blockage or leak in hoses.
EVAP canister cracked.
Fault in EVAP-CPVCV circuit.
Defective closed Throttle Position (TP) switch.
Plugged purge port.
Defective EVAP Canister Vent Control Valve (EVAP-CVCV).

CAUTION: DO NOT use ECM ground terminals when measuring voltage.

To check overall function of purge flow monitoring system, start engine and warm to normal operating temperature. Turn ignition off and wait at least 5 seconds. Start engine and wait at least 70 seconds. With engine idling, measure and record voltage between ground and ECM terminal No. 67 (EVAP-CSPS signal) by backprobing. See Figure. Raise drive wheels and support vehicle. While monitoring voltage, maintain the following conditions for at least one minute:

A/C on.
Steering wheel turned fully.
Headlights on.
Engine speed at 3000 RPM.
Rear window defogger on.
Transmission in any forward gear.

Ensure voltage remains .1 volt less than voltage measured at idle for at least one second. If voltage is not as specified, go to PROCEDURE .
