22. Select EVAP CVS ON in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS.
23. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0498 indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the EVAP canister vent shut valve and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 24.
24. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0498 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 23, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the EVAP canister vent shut valve and the ECM/PCM, then go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 22.
25. Reconnect all connectors.
26. Update the ECM/PCM if it does not have the latest software ECM/PCM Update, or substitute a known-good ECM/PCM.
27. Select EVAP CVS ON in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS.
28. Check for Pending or Confirmed DTCs with the HDS.
Is DTC P0498 indicated?
YES -
Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the EVAP canister vent shut valve and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then go to step 27. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1.
NO -
Go to step 29.
29. Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0498 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.
Does the screen indicate PASSED?
YES -
If the ECM/PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, replace the original ECM/PCM Service and Repair. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated in step 28, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
NO -
If the screen indicates FAILED, check for poor connections or loose terminals at the EVAP canister vent shut valve and the ECM/PCM. If the ECM/PCM was updated, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM, then go to step 27. If the ECM/PCM was substituted, go to step 1. If the screen indicates NOT COMPLETED, go to step 27.
