DTC P0455 [L3]: Notes
DTC P0455 (L3) DETECTION CONDITION & POSSIBLE CAUSES
| 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: 72.3 kPa {542 mmHg, 21.4 inHg} or above
- Fuel level: 15-85%
- Fuel is not refilled from engine off to next engine start
- 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.
