CANISTER PURGE SOLENOID DIAGNOSTIC CHART

Canister Purge Solenoid Testing:





CHECK ECU VOLTAGE

With ignition "ON," measure voltage between ECU connector terminal (F47)6 and ground. It should read 10-13V.

CHECK PURGE CONTROL SOLENOID

Disconnect purge control solenoid connector and measure resistance between solenoid terminals. It should read 36 Ohms at 20° C (68° F).

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECU AND PURGE CONTROL SOLENOID

1. Disconnect ECU and solenoid valve connectors.
2. Measure resistance between ECU and valve connectors and ground as follows:

Connector & terminal: Resistance:
(F47)6-(E11)2 0 Ohms
(E11)2-Ground 1M Ohms min.

3. Disconnect ground and positive terminals from battery in that order.
4. Measure resistance between solenoid connector terminal (E11)1 and positive battery terminal. It should read 0 Ohms.
