Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Detection Condition
PCM monitors pump load current (EVAP line pressure) while evaporative leak monitor is operating. If pump load current is higher than specified, PCM determines that EVAP system leak detection pump motor circuit has a malfunction. This is an intermittent monitor (other). MIL illuminates if PCM detects malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while DTC for same malfunction has been stored in PCM. PENDING CODE is available if PCM detects malfunction condition during first drive cycle. FREEZE FRAME DATA is available. DTC is stored in PCM memory.
