MONITOR DESCRIPTION
5 hours* after the ignition switch is turned OFF, the electric vacuum pump creates negative pressure (vacu-
um) in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system. The ECM monitors for leaks and actuator malfunctions
based on the EVAP pressure.
HINT:
*: If the engine coolant temperature is not below 35C (95F) 5 hours after the ignition switch is turned off,
the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not below 35C (95F) 7 hours after the ignition switch is
turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.

AAtmospheric pressure
measurement
Vent valve turned OFF (vent) and EVAP system pressure measured by ECM in order to
register atmospheric pressure.
If EVAP pressure is not between 70 kPa and 110 kPa (525 mmHg and 825 mmHg), ECM
cancels EVAP system monitor.

B
First 0.02 inch leak
pressure measure-
mentIn order to determine 0.02 inch leak pressure standard, vacuum pump creates negative pres-
sure (vacuum) through 0.02 inch orifice and them ECM checks if vacuum pump and vent
valve operate normally.
60 seconds
CEVAP system pres-
sure measurement
Vent valve turned ON (closed) to shut EVAP system.
Negative pressure (vacuum) created in EVAP system, and EVAP system pressure then
measured.
Write down the measured value as it will be used in the leak check.
If EVAP pressure does not stabilize within 15 minutes, ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.

mentLeak check is performed after second 0.02 inch leak pressure standard is measured.

(a) P0455: EVAP (Evaporative Emission) gross leak
In operation C, the vacuum pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP
system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than [second 0.02 inch leak pres-
sure standard x 0.2] (near atmospheric pressure), the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a large
leakage, illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (2 trip detection logic).
(b) P0456: EVAP very small leak
In operation C, the vacuum pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP
system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than second 0.02 inch leak pres-
sure standard, the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a small leakage, illuminates the MIL and sets
the DTC (2 trip detection logic).

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No.1 vehicle speed sensor outputs a 4±pulse signal for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which is ro-
tated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. After this signal is converted into a more precise
rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the combination meter, it is then transmitted
to the ECM. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency of these pulse signals.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM assumes that the vehicle is driven when the park/neutral position switch is OFF and it has been
over 4 sec. since the actual vehicle speed was 9 km/h (6 mph) or more.
If there is no signal from the vehicle speed sensor when these conditions are satisfied, the ECM concludes
that there is a fault in the vehicle speed sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC is set.
