PCSV to Intake Manifold Line Inspection
- Ignition "OFF"
- Disconnect the hose leading from catch tank to the PCSV
- Using a vacuum pump, apply specified vacuum (Approx. 15 in, Hg) to the PCSV side of the valve and verify PCSV holds vacuum.
- Ignition "ON" & Engine "OFF"
- Disconnect PCSV harness connector and jumper a wire from control pin to GND
- Verify vacuum release while valve is activating (should hear a faint click from PCSV)
- Repeat this procedure 4 or 5 times to ensure PCSV reliability.
- Is PCSV working properly?
YES
- Go to "CANISTER CLOSING VALVE (CCV) LINE INSPECTION " procedure

- Verify arrow on PCSV is pointing towards intake manifold. If it is not, reverse installation. Reinstall as necessary.
- If OK, check for cracks or damage in hose connecting PCSV and intake manifold. Repair or replace as necessary.
- If OK, test with a new PCSV and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace PCSV and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure
