DTC P0453 EVAP CONTROL SYSTEM PRESSURE SENSOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000003531902
The EVAP control system pressure sensor detects pressure in the purge line. The sensor output voltage to the
ECM increases as pressure increases.
CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor ModeINFOID:0000000003531903
Specification data are reference values.
On Board Diagnosis LogicINFOID:0000000003531904
NOTE:
If DTC P0453 is displayed with DTC P0643, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0643. Refer to
EC-447
.

Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.
