Diagnostic Method
Purge control solenoid valve stuck open fault diagnosis
DTC
P0457 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Fuel Cap Loose/Off)
Purpose of Mode Z
When performing the leakage diagnosis of EVAP system, the purge control solenoid valve must operate normally. Therefore, mode Z is used to diagnose the purge control solenoid valve stuck open condition. Note that if a purge control solenoid valve stuck open fault is detected, the EVAP system leakage diagnosis is cancelled.
DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
Purge control solenoid valve functional diagnosis is performed by monitoring the tank pressure in mode Z.
- Abnormality Judgement
If OK judgement cannot be made, extend Mode Z, and Judge as NG when the following conditions are established after predetermined amount of time.
Judgement Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value | DTC |
|---|---|---|
| evptez - evptezha | > 0.6 kPa (4.5 mmHg, 0.2 inHg) | P0457 |
| evptezini | ≤ 0.4 kPa (2.9 mmHg, 0.1 inHg) | |
| Time of 2 l (0.53 US gal, 0.44 lmp gal) or more fuel no sloshing | ≥ 40000 ms |
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 5000 ms + 3000 ms + 13000 ms
Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
When judgement for purge control solenoid valve stuck open NG is made, end the evaporative diagnosis. Cancel the evaporative diagnosis when the OK/NG judgement for purge control solenoid valve stuck open cannot be made in Mode Z.
- Normality Judgement
Judge as OK and change to Mode A when the following conditions are established after predetermined time has passed since Mode Z started.
Judgement Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value | DTC |
|---|---|---|
| evptez - evptezha | ≤ 0.4 kPa (3 mmHg, 0.1 inHg) | P0457 |
Normal
evptez - evptezha ≤ 0.4 kPa (3 mmHg, 0.1 inHg) Normal when above is established
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 5000 ms + 3000 ms
Purge control solenoid valve Open Fixation
- evptezini ≤ 0.4 kPa (2.9 mmHg, 0.1 inHg)
- evptez - evptezha > 0.6 kPa (4.5 mmHg, 0.2 inHg)
- No fuel sloshing of over 2 l (0.53 US gal, 0.44 lmp gal) lasts for more than 40000 ms.
Judge as abnormal when all are established.
Leak Diagnosis
DTC
P0442 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Small Leak)
P0457 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Fuel Cap Loose/Off)
- The diagnostic consists of creating a sealed vacuum in the fuel tank and then determining the presence of leakage from the speed at which the tank internal pressure returns to barometric pressure.
- The diagnosis is divided into the following five phases.
Mode A: (Estimated evaporation gas amount)
Calculate the tank pressure change amount (P1) when using mode A. After calculating P1, switch to mode B.
Mode B: (Negative pressure sealed)
Introduce negative pressure in the intake manifold to the tank.
Approx. 0 → -1.4 kPa (0 → -10.5 mmHg, 0 → -0.4 inHg)
When the pressure above (desired negative pressure) is reached, enters Mode C.
In this case, if the tank pressure does not reach the target negative pressure, judge that there is a large leakage in the system and terminate the evaporative emission control system diagnosis.
Abnormality Judgement
Judge as NG (large leakage) when the following conditions are established.
Judgement Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value | DTC |
|---|---|---|
| Time to reach target negative pressure | ≥ 10000 ms + 25000 ms | P0457 |
| or | ||
| Mode B time | ≥ 10000 ms | |
| (Min. pressure value in tank when in mode B)-(Tank pressure when mode B started) | > -0.5 kPa (-4 mmHg, -0.2 inHg) |
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 5000 ms + 3000 ms + 10000 ms + 10000 ms + 25000 ms
Mode C: (Check pressure rise)
Stop the introduction of negative pressure. (Wait until the tank pressure returns to the start level of P2 calculation.)
Change to Mode D when the tank pressure returns to the start level of P2 calculation.
Judge immediate OK and change to Mode E when it does not return in spite of spending the specified time.
| Tank pressure when starting calculation of P2 | Time for advanced OK judgement |
|---|---|
| -1.3 kPa (-9.75 mmHg, -0.4 inHg) | 14000 ms |
Time Needed for Diagnosis: 5000 ms + 3000 ms + 10000 ms + 10000 ms + 25000 ms + 14000 ms
Mode D: (Measure amount of negative pressure change)
Monitor the tank pressure change amount when using mode D. In this case, the tank pressure increases, (nears barometric pressure) because evaporation occurs. However, if any leakage exists, the pressure increases additionally in proportion to this leakage. The pressure variation of this tank is P2.
After calculating P2, perform a small leak diagnosis according to the items below.
When Mode D is ended
Assign tank variations measured in Mode A and Mode D, P1 and P2, to the formula below, judge small leaks in the system. If the measured judgement value exceeds the threshold value, it is judged to be a malfunction.
Abnormality Judgement
Judge as NG when the following conditions are established within the predetermined time. Judge as OK and clear the NG if the following conditions are not established within the predetermined time.
Judgement Value
| Malfunction Criteria | Threshold Value | DTC |
|---|---|---|
| P2 - 1.5 - x P1 | > Value of Map 5 | P0442 |

Leak Diagnosis
DTC
P0456 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (very small leak)
- The diagnostic consists of creating a sealed vacuum in the fuel tank and then determining the presence of leakage from the speed at which the tank internal pressure returns to barometric pressure.
- The diagnosis is divided into the following five phases.
Mode A: (0 point compensation)
When the pressure in the tank is not near 0 mmHg, wait until it returns to 0 point (near 0 mmHg). Shift to mode B when returned to the 0 point. Cancel the diagnosis when 0 point does not return in the specified time.
Mode B: (Negative pressure introduced)
Introduce negative pressure in the intake manifold to the tank.
Approx. 0 → -2 kPa (0 → -15 mmHg, 0 → -0.6 inHg)
When the pressure above (desired negative pressure) is reached, enters Mode C.
When the tank internal pressure does not reach the target negative pressure, the diagnosis is cancelled.
Mode C: (Negative pressure maintained)
Stop the introduction of negative pressure. (Wait until the tank pressure returns to the start level of P2 calculation.)
Change to Mode D either when the tank pressure returns to the start level of P2 calculation, or when the predetermined amount of time has passed.
Mode D: (Calculate the amount of negative pressure change)
Monitor the tank pressure in mode D, calculate the pressure change in the tank (P2), and measure the time (evpdset) for the tank pressure to change to the Mode E shifting pressure. When the Mode E shifting pressure is reached, Mode E is entered. If it does not change to the Mode E shifting pressure after the predetermined amount of time has passed, make advanced OK judgement or cancel the diagnosis according to the value of P2.
