MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-605

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 73: 
Fuel Tank Differential Pressure Sensor.

(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Remove the fuel cap.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item 

73, Fuel Tank Differential Pressure Sensor.

• The fuel tank differential pressures should be −3.3 to 3.3 

kPa (

−0.97 to 0.97 in.Hg).

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the fuel tank pressure between 

−3.3 to 3.3 kPa (−0.97 

to 0.97 in.Hg)?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Refer to DTC P0451 - Evaporative Emission Control 

System Pressure Sensor Range/Performance 

P.13A-644

.

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test 
item 08: Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid.

(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) 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.

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

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the evaporative emission purge solenoid. 

Then go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test 
item 29: Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.

(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator test mode for item 

29, Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration 

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

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

YES : Repair or replace the vent hose and air filter. Then go 

to Step 5.

NO :  Replace the evaporative emission ventilation 

solenoid. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Test the OBD-II drive cycle. 
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function 

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 1 − 

Evaporative Emission System Leak Monitor 

P.13A-5

.

(2) Read the diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC P0441 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The PCM monitors the Evaporative Emission 

(EVAP) System pressure.

• The PCM controls the evaporative emission ven-

tilation solenoid. It closes the evaporative emis-
sion ventilation solenoid to seal the evaporative 
emission canister side of the system.

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid is 

opened to allow manifold vacuum to create low 
pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system.

• When the EVAP system develops a vacuum of 2 

kPa (0.29 psi), the evaporative emission purge 
solenoid is closed and the fuel system vacuum is 
maintained at 2 kPa. (0.29 psi).

• The PCM determines whether there is a leak in 

the EVAP system by monitoring the vacuum 
inside the fuel tank.

• The test is stopped when fuel vapor pressure 

exceeds predetermined limits.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

• Measure reverting pressure after depressurizing 

by intake manifold negative pressure and detect 
malfunction if reverting pressure rises largely.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

• Once per driving cycle.

.
