DTC SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
The circuit description can be found in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) System (See page ES-409).
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Refer to the EVAP System (See page ES-412).
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The two monitors, Key-Off and Purge Flow, are used to detect malfunctions relating to DTC P0441. The
Key-off monitor is initiated by the ECM internal timer, known as the soak timer, 5 hours
*1 after the ignition
switch is turned off. The purge flow monitor runs while the engine is running.

1. KEY-OFF MONITOR
5 hours
*1 after the ignition switch is turned off, the electric vacuum pump creates negative pressure
(vacuum) in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system. The ECM monitors for leaks and actuator
malfunctions based on the EVAP pressure.
HINT:
*1: 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 35
C (95F) 7 hours after the
ignition switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.
*2: If only a small amount of fuel is in the fuel tank, it takes longer for the EVAP pressure to stabilize.
Sequence Operation Description Duration
- ECM activationActivated by soak timer, 5 hours (7 or 9.5 hours) after ignition switch
turned off.-
AAtmospheric pressure
measurementVent valve is turned OFF (vent) and EVAP system pressure is
measured by ECM in order to register atmospheric pressure.
If pressure in EVAP system is not between 70 kPa and 110 kPa (525
mmHg and 825 mmHg), ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.10 seconds
BFirst 0.02 inch leak pressure
measurementIn order to determine 0.02 inch leak pressure standard, vacuum pump
creates negative pressure (vacuum) through 0.02 inch orifice and then
ECM checks if vacuum pump and vent valve operate normally.60 seconds
CEVAP system pressure
measurementVent valve is turned ON (closed) to shut EVAP system.
Negative pressure (vacuum) is created in EVAP system, and EVAP
system pressure is then measured.
Write down measured value as it will be used in leak check.
If EVAP pressure does not stabilize within 15 minutes, ECM cancels
EVAP system monitor.15 minutes
*2
D Purge VSV monitorPurge VSV is opened and then EVAP system pressure is measured
by ECM.
Large increase indicates normal.10 seconds
ESecond 0.02 inch leak pressure
measurementAfter second 0.02 inch leak pressure measurement, leak check is
performed by comparing first and second 0.02 inch leak pressure
standards.
If stabilized system pressure is higher than second 0.02 inch leak
pressure standard, ECM determines that EVAP system leaking.60 seconds
F Final checkAtmospheric pressure is measured and then monitoring result is
recorded by ECM.-

(a) Purge VSV stuck open
In operation C, the vacuum pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP (Evaporative
Emission) system. The EVAP system pressure is then measured by the ECM using the pressure
sensor. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than [second 0.02 inch leak pressure standard
x 0.2], the ECM interprets this as the purge VSV (Vacuum Switching Valve) being stuck open.
The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (2 trip detection logic).

(b) Purge VSV stuck closed
In operation D, the pressure sensor measures the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system
pressure. The pressure measurement for purge VSV monitor is begun when the purge VSV is
turned on (open) after the EVAP leak check. When the measured pressure indicates an increase
of 0.3 kPa (2.25 mmHg) or more, the purge VSV is functioning normally. If the pressure does not
increase, the ECM interprets this as the purge VSV being stuck closed. The ECM illuminates the
MIL and sets the DTC (2 trip detection logic).
2. PURGE FLOW MONITOR
The purge flow monitor consists of the two step monitors.
The 1st monitor is conducted every time and the 2nd
monitor is activated if necessary.
• The 1st monitor
While the engine is running and the purge VSV
(Vacuum Switching Valve) is on (open), the ECM
monitors the purge flow by measuring the EVAP
pressure change. If negative pressure is not created,
the ECM begins the 2nd monitor.
• The 2nd monitor
The vent valve is turned on (closed) and the EVAP
pressure is then measured. If the variation in the
pressure is less than 0.5 kPa (3.75 mmHg), the ECM
interprets this as the purge VSV being stuck closed,
and illuminates the MIL and sets DTC P0441 (2 trip
detection logic).
Atmospheric pressure check:
In order to ensure reliable malfunction detection, the
variation between the atmospheric pressures, before
and after conduction of the purge flow monitor, is
measured by the ECM.
