Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 5:  If you are at this diagnostic table because you were sent here from DTC P2401 or P2402, go to Step 11. If only DTC P2419 was set, go to Step 11. If you had a DTC P2401 or P2402 set with a P2419, go perform the P2401 or P2402 diagnostic procedure before continuing in this diagnostic table.
  2. 15:  This step uses the EVAP Service Bay test in order to verify the correct operation of the EVAP vent solenoid, the EVAP purge solenoid, and the EVAP vacuum leak pump. Using the Service Bay test also tests for leaks by sealing the system and monitoring the FTP sensor.
