EVAP System Leak Monitor

EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM LEAK MONITOR (DTC P0442, P0450)

TEST REQUIREMENTS/PROCEDURE
All of the following requirements should be met when carrying out a drive test.





(1) Engine coolant temperature: 45°C (113°F) or less (before starting drive test, engine stopped)
(2) Atmospheric temperature: 5°C (41°F) or more, 45°C (113°F) or less
(3) Condition of A/T
- Selector lever position: D range
- Overdrive switch: ON
2. One trip monitor will be completed by driving according to the steps below (from start to switch off). (it takes approx. 8 minutes.)
*1: Check that both engine coolant temperature and air intake temperature satisfy requirement 1 (engine stopped).
*2: Monitor preparation period; Start the engine, and accelerate to 89 - 97 km/h (55 - 60 mph). For this period, acceleration, deceleration, or braking may be carried out.
Continue driving between 89 and 97 km/h (55 and 60 mph) for 200 seconds or more. For this period, braking or throttle operation may be carried out if vehicle speed is within the specified value.
*3: Drive between 89 and 97 km/h (55 and 60 mph) at a constant throttle angle (by not moving the throttle pedal as much as possible) for 150 seconds or more during monitor. Moreover, do not turn the steering wheel suddenly.
*4: Decelerate and stop the vehicle. After stop, turn off the ignition switch.
