DTC Summary

DTC SUMMARY

DTC No. Monitoring Items Malfunction Detection Conditions Trouble Areas Detection Timing Detection Logic
P0441 Purge Vacuum Switching Valve (VSV) stuck open Leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in EVAP system and EVAP system pressure measured. 0.02 inch leak criterion measured at start and at end of leak check.
If stabilized pressure higher than [second 0.02 inch leak criterion x 0.15], ECM determines that purge VSV stuck open.
  • Purge VSV
  • Connector/wire harness (purge VSV - ECM)
  • ECM
  • Canister pump module
  • Leakage from EVAP system
While power switch OFF 2 trip
P0441 Purge VSV stuck closed After EVAP leak check performed, purge VSV turned ON (open), and atmospheric air introduced into EVAP system. 0.02 inch leak criterion measured at start and at end of leak check.
If pressure does not return to near atmospheric pressure, ECM determines that purge VSV stuck closed.

P0441 Purge flow While engine running, following conditions are met:
  • Negative pressure not created in EVAP system when purge VSV turned ON (open)
  • Atmospheric pressure change before and after purge flow monitor less than 0.93 kPa (7 mmHg)
  • Purge VSV
  • Connector/wire harness (purge VSV - ECM)
  • Leakage from EVAP line (purge VSV - Intake manifold)
  • ECM
