Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Multimeter.

Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) Engine Electronics Fuse (S282 ) OK.

The ignition switched off.

Voltage for the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) is supplied via the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay (J17).

Procedure

- Remove the right side engine compartment cover - 1 -.





- Disconnect the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical harness connector.





Checking internal resistance

- Using a Multimeter, check the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80).





Specified value: 22,0 to 30,0 ohms.

If the specified value was not obtained:

- Replace the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80).

If the specification is obtained:

Checking voltage supply

- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 to 2 for voltage.





- Operate the starter briefly.

Specified value: battery voltage.

If the specified value was not obtained:

- Using a Multimeter, check the electrical harness connector terminal 1 to Ground (GND) for voltage.





- Operate the starter briefly.

Specified value: battery voltage.

If the specified value was not obtained:

- Check the wiring connection from the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay ( J17) terminal 2 for an open circuit or short to ground (GND).

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking wiring

If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.

- Install the test box. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.

- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J623). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Replacing ] Service and Repair.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical connector terminal 2 to the Engine Control Module (ECM) ( J623) electrical connector T121 terminal 64 for an open circuit.









Specified value: 1.5 ohms.

If the specification was not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specification was obtained:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ). Refer to => [ Engine Control Module, Replacing ] Service and Repair.

Final procedures

After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the mentioned sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory..

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory..

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code..

- Switch the ignition off.
