P0455

DTC P0442 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Small Leak)
DTC P0455 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Gross Leak)
DTC P0456 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Very Small Leak)

DESCRIPTION

DTC Detection Condition:

When predetermined conditions (closed loop, etc.) are met, the EVAP VSV is opened and stored fuel vapor in the canister is purged to the intake manifold. The ECM changes duty-cycle to the EVAP VSV to control purge flow volume. Purge flow volume is determined by the intake manifold pressure. Atmospheric pressure is allowed into the canister through the vent valve (CCV) to ensure that purge flow is maintained when negative pressure (vacuum) is applied to the canister. This EVAP system contains components:

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Monitor Strategy:

Typical Enabling Conditions:

Typical Malfunction Thresholds:

The ECM tests the Evaporative Emissions (EVAP) system using the fuel tank pressure sensor, Canister Close Valve (CCV), and EVAP VSV. The ECM closes the EVAP system and creates negative pressure (vacuum) into it. The ECM then monitors the internal pressure using the fuel tank pressure sensor (refer to the Leak Check graphic). P0442, P0455 and P0456 When there is a leak in the evaporative emission system, the ECM sets DTC

P0442, P0445 or P0456.
The ECM checks if the EVAP has leaks. First, the ECM opens the EVAP VSV while the CCV is closed. After a sufficient amount of time has passed, a high negative pressure (vacuum) will develop in the fuel tank as air is drawn into the intake manifold. The EVAP VSV is then closed. The ECM then monitors the pressure increase (loss of vacuum) in the fuel tank. If the pressure rises beyond a specified amount, the ECM determines that the system has a leak, turns on the MIL and sets a DTC. The ECM has DTCs for small and large leaks:
1. DTC P0442 is set when the internal fuel tank pressure has a large increase and the EVAP system has a small leak.
2. DTC P0455 is set when the EVAP system has a very large leak. The ECM tries to create negative pressure (vacuum) in the fuel tank by opening the EVAP VSV while the CCV is closed. However, the fuel tank pressure does not decrease beyond a specified threshold.
3. DTC P0456 is set when the internal fuel tank pressure increases slightly and the EVAP system has a very small leak.

MONITOR RESULT

Refer to "CHECKING MONITOR STATUS" for detailed information. Mode 6 Data

The test value and test limit information are described as shown in the given table. Check the monitor result and test values after performing the monitor drive pattern.




- TID (Test Identification Data) is assigned to each emissions-related component.
- TLT (Test Limit Type):
If TLT is 0, the component is malfunctioning when the test value is higher than the test limit.
If TLT is 1, the component is malfunctioning when the test value is lower than the test limit.
- CID (Component Identification Data) is assigned to each test value.
- Unit Conversion is used to calculate the test value indicated on generic OBD II scan tools.
