Fault text
Tank-venting valve, activation: open circuit

Fault description
The diagnostic function monitors the electrical connection
between the DME and the EVAP evaporative emissions
valve.

Condition for fault identification
Test condition:
The fault is recognized when a control-activation signal is
transmitted to the EVAP evaporative emission valve and the
circuit is open.
Potential problem source(s):
- Defect in wiring harness between DME and EVAP
evaporative emissions valve
- No voltage supply to EVAP evaporative emissions valve
- Fuel tank ventilation valve defective
Terminal condition: Terminal 15
Voltage condition:
- Electrical system voltage > 10 V
Temperature condition:
- None
Time condition:
- 0.5 sec.
Other conditions:
- Component must receive activation signal

Condition for fault memory entry
This fault is logged in the control module's fault memory if
it remains present for longer than 0.5 sec.

Action in service
- Disconnect evaporative emissions valve and check wiring
harness
- Check power-supply voltage to EVAP evaporative
emissions valve
- Replace EVAP evaporative emissions valve

Fault effect and breakdown warning
Breakdown notice:
- Attempt to release excess pressure from the tank by
carefully opening the fuel filler cap. Then attempt a restart.
Possible apparent symptoms:
- Engine difficult or impossible to start.
