EVAP Purge Regulator Valve, Checking

EVAP Purge Regulator Valve, Checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Multimeter.

• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

• The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) fuse OK.

• The ignition switched OFF.

• Voltage for the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) is supplied via the Engine Component Power Supply Relay (J757).

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check

Start diagnosis

etc.)

- Remove the engine cover with air filter. Refer to the Repair Information.

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

Checking internal resistance

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

Specified value: 15.0 to 22.0 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 purge valve electrical harness connector terminal 1 to 2 for voltage.

- Turn ignition switch ON.

Specified value: 8.60 volts +/- 2 volts.

Turn the ignition switch OFF.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Leave the multimeter positive lead on terminal 1 and connect the multimeter negative lead to engine ground.

- Ignition switch ON.

Specified value: Battery Voltage.

Turn the ignition switch OFF.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Check the circuit from the EVAP solenoid terminal 2 to power source for open or high resistance. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for power supply detail.

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

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

Check Ground activation

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the Repair Information.

- Using a multimeter, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve (N80) electrical connector terminal 2 to Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical connector T60 terminal 32 for an open circuit. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for pin locations.

Specified value: 1.5 ohms max.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short to voltage, high resistance or an open circuit.

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

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the Repair Information.

Final procedures

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

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
