EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM PURGE SOLENOID
CONTROL CIRCUIT
System Description
The Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system includes the
following components:
S Fuel tank
S Fuel tank pressure sensor.
S Fuel pipes and hoses.
S Fuel vapor lines.
S Fuel cap
S EVAP canister.
S Purge lines.
S EVAP emission canister purge solenoid valve.
S EVAP service port.
The EVAP purge canister solenoid is controlled by the En-
gine Control Module (ECM). The ECM applies a ground to
the EVAP purge canister solenoid. The ECM determines
when to activate the EVAP canister purge solenoid de-
pending on operating conditions, including Throttle Posi-
tion (TP), engine speed, Engine Coolant Temperature
(ECT) and ambient temperature.
The Diagnostic Trouble Code will detect an open or short
circuit.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
S Ignition ON.
S Ignition voltage is greater than 11 v.
Action Taken When the DTC SetsS The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate
after three consecutive trip with a fail.
S The ECM will record operating conditions at the
time the diagnostic fails. This information will be
stored in the Freeze Frame and Failure Records
buffers.
S A history DTC is stored.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
S The MIL will turn off after four consecutive ignition
cycles in which the diagnostic runs without a fault.
S A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm–
up cycles without a fault.
S DTC(s) can be cleared by using a scan tool.
S Disconnecting the ECM battery feed for more than
10 seconds.
Diagnostic Aids
Using Freeze Frame and/or Failure Records data may aid
in locating an intermittent condition. If the DTC cannot be
duplicated, the information included in the Freeze Frame
and/or Failure Records data can be useful in determining
how many miles since the DTC set. The Fail Counter and
the Pass Counter can also be used to determine how
many ignition cycles the diagnostic reported a pass and/or
a fail. Operate the vehicle within the same freeze frame
conditions (rpm, load, vehicle speed, temperature, etc.)
that were noted. This will isolate when the DTC failed.

VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR NO SIGNAL (ENGINE SIDE)
Circuit Description
Vehicle speed information is provided to the Engine Con-
trol Module (ECM) by the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).
The VSS is a permanent magnet generator that is
mounted in the transaxle and produces a pulsing voltage
whenever vehicle speed is over 3 mph (5 km/h). The Alter-
nating Current (AC) voltage level and the number of
pulses increases with vehicle speed. The ECM converts
the pulsing voltage into mph (km/h) and then supplies the
necessary signal to the instrument panel for speedometer/
odometer operation and to the cruise control module and
multi–function alarm module operation. This Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) will detect if vehicle speed is reason-
able according to engine rpm and load.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
S Vehicle speed is less than 5 km/h (3.1 mph) for
Power and Decel test.
S Engine is running.
S Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) is greater than
60 °C (140 °F).
S Ignition voltage is between 11–16 volts.
S Power Test
S The rpm is between 1200 and 4000.S Throttle Position (TP) sensor is between 25%
and 60%.
S MAP is greater than 60 kPa (8.7 psi).
S Deceleration Test
S Generator compensated Manifold Absolute
Pressure (MAP) is less than 30 kPa (4.4 psi)
S Change in rpm per cycle is less than 50 rpm/
cycle.
S Throttle Position (TP) sensor is less than 0.8%.

IDLE SPEED RPM LOWER THAN DESIRED IDLE SPEED
Circuit Description
The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls the air enter-
ing into the engine with an Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve. To
increase the idle rpm, the ECM commands the pintle in-
side the IAC valve away from the throttle body seat. This
allows more air to bypass through the throttle blade. To de-
crease the rpm the ECM commands the pintle towards the
throttle body seat. This reduces the amount of air bypass-
ing the throttle blade. A scan tool will read the IAC valve
pintle position in counts. The higher the counts, the more
air that is allowed to bypass the throttle blade. This Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC) determines if a low idle condi-
tion exists as defined as 100 rpm below the desired idle
rpm.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P1111
INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE INTERMITTENT HIGH
VOLTAGE
Circuit Description
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor is a thermistor
which measures the temperature of the air entering the en-
gine. The Engine Control Module (ECM) applies 5 volts
through a pull–up resistor to the IAT sensor. When the in-
take air is cold, the resistance is high, and the ECM will
monitor a high signal voltage on the IAT signal circuit. If the
intake air is warm, the sensor resistance is lower causing
the ECM to monitor a lower voltage. Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) P1111 will set when the ECM detects an inter-
mittent high signal voltage in the intake air temperature
sensor signal circuit or sensor.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
S IAT is less than –38°C (–36°F).
S DTCs P0502, P0117, P0118 are not set
S Engine has been running for over 120 seconds.
S Vehicles speed is less than 25 km/h (16 mph).
S Calculated air flow is less than 15 g/second.
S Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) is above 70°C
(158°F).
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
S The ECM will substitute a default value for IAT.
S The ECM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC set as Failure Records data only.
This information will not be stored as Freeze Frame
data.
S The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not illumi-
nate.S A history DTC is stored.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
S A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm–
up cycles without a fault.
S DTC(s) can be cleared by using the scan tool.
S Disconnecting the ECM battery feed for more than
10 seconds.
Diagnostic Aids
Check for the following conditions:
S Poor connection at the ECM. Inspect harness con-
nectors for backed–out terminals, improper mating,
broken locks, improperly formed or damaged termi-
nals, and poor terminal–to–wire connection.
S Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for
damage. If the harness appears to be OK, observe
the IAT display on the scan tool while moving con-
nectors and wiring harnesses related to the IAT
sensor. A change in the IAT display will indicate the
location of the fault.
S Reviewing the Fail Records vehicle mileage since
the diagnostic test last failed may help determine
how often the condition that caused the DTC to be
set occurs. This may assist in diagnosing the condi-
tion.
S Use the Temperature vs. Resistance Values table
to evaluate the possibility of a skewed sensor. Re-
fer to ”Temperature vs. Resistance” in this section.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE INTERMITTENT LOW
VOLTAGE
Circuit Description
The Engine Coolant Temperature sensor (ECT) is a
thermistor mounted in the engine coolant stream. The En-
gine control Module (ECM) applies 5 volt reference volt-
age through a pull–up resistor to the ECT signal circuit.
When the engine coolant is cold, the sensor resistance is
high, and the ECM will monitor a high signal voltage. As
the engine coolant warms, the sensor resistance is less,
and the ECT signal voltage measured at the ECM drops.
With a fully warmed engine, the ECT signal voltage should
measure about 1.5 to 2.0 volts. If the ECM detects an ECT
signal that is intermittently below the range of the ECT
sensor, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1114 will set.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
S ECT is less than 149°C (300°F).
S Engine has been running for over 60 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
S The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not illumi-
nate.
