GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CB:DTC P0420 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD (BANK 1)
1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the deterioration of the catalyst function.
Though the rear oxygen sensor output would change slowly with a new catalyst, the sensor output with a de-
teriorated catalyst becomes high and the inversion time is shortened.
For this reason, the catalyst diagnosis is carried out by monitoring the rear oxygen sensor output and com-
paring it with the front oxygen A/F sensor output.

Map 2
Add the following value every 512 milliseconds.
4. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
Perform the diagnosis only once at a constant 70 km/h (43 MPH) or higher.
5. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
After the execution criteria are established, calculate the output fluctuation value of front oxygen (A/F) sensor
(averaged for the right and left) and output fluctuation value of rear oxygen sensor. Calculate the diagnosis
value when the front oxygen (A/F) sensor output fluctuation value is more than specified value. A/F response
properties and diagnosis values are parameters for the judgment value.
Judge as NG when the malfunction criteria below are met. Judge as OK if the criteria below are not met.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CC:DTC P0442 EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM LEAK DETECT-
ED (SMALL LEAK)
1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Check if there is a leakage in fuel system or not, and perform the function diagnosis of valve.
In this system diagnosis, check for leakage and valve function is conducted by changing the fuel tank pres-
sure and monitoring the pressure change using the fuel tank pressure sensor.
When in 0.04 inch diagnosis, perform in the order of mode Z → mode A → mode B → mode C and mode D;
When in 0.02 inch diagnosis, perform in the order of mode A → mode B → mode C → mode D and mode E.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
3. GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE
0.04-inch Diagnosis
Perform the diagnosis only once in 851 seconds or more after starting the engine, at a constant speed of 32
km/h (20 MPH) or more.
Pay attention to the fuel temperature and fuel level.
0.02-inch Diagnosis
Perform the diagnosis after 120 seconds or more after starting the engine, at a constant engine RPM of 30
km/h (19 MPH) or higher, to judge as NG or OK.
If OK/NG judgment is not possible, repeat the diagnosis.
Pay attention to the fuel temperature and fuel level.
4. DIAGNOSTIC METHOD
0.04-inch Diagnosis
Mode Z: (Purge control solenoid valve opening failure diagnosis)
When performing the leakage diagnosis of the EVAP system, the purge control solenoid valve must operate
properly. Therefore, mode Z is used to diagnose a stuck open condition of the purge control solenoid valve
by monitoring the tank pressure.
Note that if a purge control solenoid valve stuck open fault is detected, the EVAP system leakage diagnosis
is cancelled.
