Powertrain Control Module (PCM) Description

EVAP Control System Overview:

The EVAP system uses a fuel tank pressure sensor, located on top of the fuel tank sender unit, in order to detect when the EVAP system is purging. The fuel tank pressure sensor detects the flow from the engine through the EVAP canister purge valve. When the EVAP system is not purging, the fuel tank pressure sensor will detect no change in the fuel tank vacuum. When the EVAP system is purging, the sensor will detect a vacuum in the fuel tank. A change in pressure will be displayed on the scan tool. If a leak, an obstruction, or a malfunctioning sensor are present, one of the following DTCs will set:
