Circuit/System Testing
- Verify DTC P0458, P0459, P0498, P0499, P0452, or P0453 is not set.
- If a DTC is set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
- Disconnect the purge line from the EVAP purge valve.
- Ignition ON, observe the scan tool fuel tank pressure sensor parameter. The FTP sensor parameter should be 0 in/H2O. If the pressure is not at 0 in/H2O, verify the FTP sensor voltage is less than 4.7 V.
- If the FTP sensor voltage is greater than 4.7 V, refer to DTC P0452 or P0453 .
- Reconnect all previously disconnected EVAP hardware.
- Remove the fuel fill cap and connect the GE-41415-50 to the fuel tank filler neck. Connect the J 41413-200 to the GE-41415-50 . See Special Tools .
- Ignition ON, seal the EVAP system with a scan tool.
- Turn the nitrogen/smoke valve on the J 41413-200 to nitrogen. See Special Tools .
- Use the remote switch to activate the J 41413-200 and pressurize the fuel tank with nitrogen to 9. See Special Tools .33 mm/Hg (5 in/H20).
- While observing the scan tool FTP sensor parameter, command the EVAP vent valve OFF. Verify the FTP Sensor parameter is 0 in/H2O.
- If not at the specified value, test for a blockage or a restriction in the EVAP vent hose, or replace the EVAP vent solenoid valve.
- If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification test, then operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records List.
NOTE:
Refer to the J 41413-200
Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) operation manual for detailed instructions. See Special Tools
.
NOTE:
DO NOT exceed the specified value in this step. Exceeding the specified value may produce incorrect test results.
