.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid power 

is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal No. 4).

• The PCM controls ground evaporative emission 

purge solenoid by turning the power transistor in 
the PCM "ON" and "OFF".

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• To judge if there is open circuit in the evaporative 

emission purge solenoid drive circuit, the PCM 
measures the surge voltage of the evaporative 
emission ventilation solenoid coil.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Off-surge does not occur after solenoid is operated 

from on to off.

DTC SET CONDITIONS
Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• Engine is being cranked.

• Battery positive voltage is between 10 and 16.5 

volts.

Judgment Criteria

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid coil 

surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) 
is not detected for 0.2 second.

• The PCM monitors for this condition once during 

the drive cycle.

.

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is between 10 and 16.5 

volts.

• ON duty cycle of the evaporative emission purge 

solenoid is between 10 and 90 percent.

• Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid is off.

• More than 1 second has elapsed after the above 

mentioned conditions have been met. 

Judgment Criteria

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid coil 

surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) 
is not detected for 1 second after the evaporative 
emission purge solenoid is turned off.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most 
likely causes for this code to be set are: )

• Evaporative emission purge solenoid failed.

• Open or shorted evaporative emission purge 

solenoid circuit, harness damage, or connector 
damage.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB991923: Power Plant ECU Check Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test 
item 08: Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator test mode for item 

08, Evaporative emission purge solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration 

should be felt when the evaporative emission purge 
solenoid is operated.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-14

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2 Check harness connector B-05 at the evaporative 
emission purge solenoid for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.
