CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The circuit description can be found in the EVAP INSPECTION PROCEDURE (see page 05-679).
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Refer to the EVAP INSPECTION PROCEDURE (see page 05-679).
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
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 (vacu-
um) 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
A leak in the evaporative emission system prompts the ECM to set DTC P0442, P0455 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 deter-
mines that the system has a leak, turns on the MIL and outputs a DTC.
The ECM has separate 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.

Cold engine start.
EVAP VSV has been operated and turned OFF, sealing nega-
tive pressure (vacuum) in system.
ECM begins to monitor fuel tank pressure increase and one
of the following occurs (2 trip detection logic):
(a) Rapid, sharp increase in pressure occurs, indicating small
leak in EVAP system. DTC P0442 is set.
(b) Negative pressure (vacuum) is not strong enough, indicat-
ing large hole in EVAP system. DTC P0455 is set.
(c) Increase in pressure above expected amount occurs, indi-
cating small leak in EVAP system. DTC P0456 is set.

MONITOR RESULT
Refer to page 05-385 for detailed information.
The test value and test limit information are described as shown in the following table. Check the monitor
result and test values after performing the monitor drive pattern (see page 05-387).
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 ll scan tools.
