Inspection Procedure

HINT:

Read freeze frame data. Freeze frame data records engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

  1. CHECK OTHER DTC OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0441, P0442, P0446 AND/OR P0456)

    Display (DTC output) Proceed to
    Only P0441, P0442, P0446 and/or P0456 are output A
    P0451, P0452 and P453 are output B

    HINT:

    If any other DTCs besides P0441, P0442, P0446 and/or P0456 are output, perform the troubleshooting for those DTCs first (reference: P0451, P0452, P0453 are vapor pressure sensor malfunctions).

    1. B: Go to RELEVANT  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART  
    2. A: Go to next step 
  2. CHECK CURRENT AND PENDING DTC 
    1. Check current DTCs. Select the hand-held tester menus: DIAGNOSIS, ENHANCED OBDII, DTC INFO and CURRENT DTCS.
    2. Check pending DTCs. Select the hand-held tester menus: DIAGNOSIS, ENHANCED OBDII, DTC INFO and PENDING DTCS.

      DTC OUTPUT RESULT

      Current DTC Pending DTC Conclusion
      Set Set System has been malfunctioning. Problem can be specified.
      Set - System was malfunctioning in previous driving cycle. Problem may be specified.
      - Set System is malfunctioning. This is Intermittent problem and caused by fuel tank cap loosening. Otherwise, this problem may be difficult to eliminate.

    HINT:

    The ECM stores the current DTC and illuminates the MIL when an emission-related component is malfunctioning in 2 consecutive driving cycles (2 trips). The MIL Is turned OFF, if the component is functioning normally in 3 consecutive driving cycles. The ECM erases the current DTC, if the component is functioning normally in 40 consecutive driving cycles.

    The ECM stores the pending DTC when If the component is malfunctioning in present driving cycle (1 trip). The ECM erases the pending DTC, if the component is functioning normally in the next driving cycle.

    Result 

    TERMINAL 1 VOLTAGE CHECKING RESULT

    Voltage Conclusion Proceed to
    Battery voltage Wire harness (EVAP VSV - Power source) is OK. OK
    0 to 3 V Wire harness (EVAP VSV - Power source) is short circuit. NG
    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 
    2. OK: Go to next step 
  35. CHECK WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (EVAP VSV - ECM) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect the E7 ECM connector.
    3. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    4. Measure the voltage between the terminal 34 of the wire harness side and body ground.

    Result 

    ECM CONNECTOR TERMINAL 34 VOLTAGE CHECKING RESULT

    Voltage Conclusion Proceed to
    Battery voltage Wire harness (EVAP VSV - ECM) is OK. OK
    0 to 3V Wire harness (EVAP VSV - ECM) is short circuit. NG
    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 
    2. OK: CHECK AND REPLACE ECM 
  36. CHECK FUEL TANK CAP 
    1. Connect the fuel tank cap to the gas cap adaptor.
    2. Connect the pressure hose from the pump to the gas cap adaptor.
    3. Plug the gas cap adaptor port.
    4. Turn the pump ON and pressurize the gas cap adaptor by 24 - 28 mmHg. If the pressure does not reach to 24 mmHg within 45 seconds, stop the pump. The fuel tank cap is malfunctioning.
    5. Turn the pump OFF and seal the pressure line to maintain the pressure.
    6. Measure the pressure change for 2 minutes. If the pressure drops to lower than 15 mmHg, the fuel tank cap is malfunctioning.

      Standard: The fuel tank cap keeps the pressure that is 15 mmHg or higher. 

    1. NG: REPLACE FUEL TANK CAP 
    2. OK: Go to next step 
  37. CHECK LEAK 
    NOTE: DO NOT apply the EVAP system to the pressure that is higher than 35 mmHg. The EVAP system will be damaged.
    1. Connect the pressure line from the pump to the EVAP service port.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON but the engine is not running.
    3. Turn the CCV (vent valve) is ON (close) using the hand-held tester. Select the hand-held tester me nus: DIAGNOSIS, ENHANCED OBD II, ACTIVE TEST and CAN CTRL VSV.
    4. Turn the pump ON and pressurize the EVAP system by 24 - 28 mmHg.
    5. Turn the pump OFF and seal the pressure line to maintain the pressure. If the pressure does not reach to 24 mmHg within 45 seconds, stop the pump. A leakage is in the EVAP system. If the system has a small leak, a whistling sound may be heard.
    6. Measure the pressure change for 2 minutes. If the pressure drops to lower than 15 mmHg, a leakage is in the EVAP system.

      Standard: The EVAP system keeps the pressure that is 15 mmHg or higher. 

    1. NG: Go to step 38 
    2. OK: NO LEAKAGE IN EVAP SYSTEM 
  38. LOOK FOR LEAK POINT 
    1. Apply the soapy water on suspected components.
    2. Turn the CCV (vent valve) is ON (close) using the hand held tester. Select the hand-held tester menus: DIAGNOSIS, ENHANCED OBD II, ACTIVE TEST and CAN CTRL VSV.
    3. Turn the pump ON and pressurize the EVAP system by 24 - 28 mmHg.
    4. Turn the pump OFF and seal the pressure line to maintain the pressure. If the pressure does not reach to 24 mmHg within 45 seconds, stop the pump.
    5. Check bubbles to find the leak point:
      • EVAP service port
      • Canister
      • Hose connections/Lines
      • Fuel cap
      • Fuel filler neck
      • Purge line
      • EVAP VSV
      • CCV (vent valve)
      • Fuel pump sending unit
    6. Repair or replace the leak component.
    7. Perform the EVAP system check to confirm no leak.

  39. CHECK EVAP VSV 
    1. Connect the vacuum gauge to the EVAP service port.
      Fig 45: Connecting Vacuum Gauge To EVAP Service Port

      1. Start the engine.
      2. Switch the EVAP VSV using the hand-held tester. Select the hand-held tester menus: DIAGNOSIS, ENHANCED OBD II, ACTIVE TEST and EVAP VSV.
      3. Check the vacuum when switching the EVAP VSV. If the vacuum gauge indicates negative value when the EVAP VSV is ON, the EVAP VSV is functioning normally.

        OK: 

        The vacuum gauge indicates negative value when the EVAP VSV is ON. 

    1. NG: Go to step   33 
    2. OK: Go to next step 

    Go to step   17 

  40. CHECK MONITOR STATUS AND DTC 
    1. Clear DTCs.
    2. Perform a drive pattern test (see READINESS MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN ).
    3. Check that the monitor result is PASS.
    4. Confirm no pending DTC.
