DTC P0440 Evaporative Emission Control System
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The vapor pressure sensor and VSV for vapor pressure sensor are used to detect abnormalities in the evap-
orative emission control system.
The ECM decides whether there is an abnormality in the evaporative emission control system based on the
vapor pressure sensor signal.
DTC P0440 is recorded by the ECM when evaporative emissions leak from the components within the dotted
line in fig. 1 below, or when the vapor pressure sensor malfunctions.

DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area

PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the glove compartment (See page SF±73).
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure voltage between terminals PTNK and E2 of the ECM
connectors.
(1) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the vapor pres-
sure sensor.
(2) Using the MITYVAC (Hand±Held Vacuum Pump),
apply a vacuum of 4.0 kPa (30 mmHg, 1.18 in.Hg)
to the vapor pressure sensor.
NOTICE:
The vacuum applied to the vapor pressure sensor must be
less than 66.7 kPa (500 mmHg, 19.7 in.Hg).
OK:
(1) Voltage: 2.9 ~ 3.7 V
(2) Voltage: 0.5 V or less
OK Go to step 12.

11 Check for open and short in harness and connector between vapor pressure
sensor and ECM (See page IN±31).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
Replace vapor pressure sensor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

If DTCs P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451 is output after DTC P0440, first troubleshoot DTCs P0441,
P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0440 next.

Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the
VSV for EVAP, charcoal canister and vapor pressure sensor.

1 Check VSV connector for EVAP, VSV connector for vapor pressure sensor and
vapor pressure sensor connector for looseness and disconnection.
NG Repair or connect VSV or sensor connector.

hand±held tester, check whether the disconnected hose ap-
plies suction to your finger.
OK:
VSV is ON:
Disconnected hose applies suction to your finger.
VSV is OFF:
Disconnected hose applies no suction to your finger.
OK Go to step 10.
