- Verify DTCs P0458, P0459, P0498, P0499, P0452, or P0453 are not set.
- If a DTC is set, refer to DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) LIST - VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION .
- Disconnect the purge line from the EVAP purge valve.
- Ignition ON, observe the fuel tank pressure sensor parameter with a scan tool. The FTP sensor parameter should be 0 inches H2O. If the pressure is not at 0 inches H2O, verify the FTP sensor voltage is less than 4.7 volts.
- If the FTP sensor voltage is more than 4.7 volts, refer to DTC P0452 or P0453Β .
- Reconnect all previously disconnected EVAP hardware.NOTE: Refer to the J 41413-200 Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) operation manual for detailed instructions.
- Remove the fuel fill cap and connect the GE-41415-50 to the fuel tank filler neck. Connect the J 41413-200 to the GE- 41415-50.
- Ignition ON, seal the EVAP system with a scan tool.
- Turn the nitrogen/smoke valve on the J 41413-200 to nitrogen.NOTE: DO NOT exceed the specified value in this step. Exceeding the specified value may produce incorrect test results.
- Use the remote switch to activate the J 41413-200 and pressurize the fuel tank with nitrogen to 5 inches H20.
- While observing the FTP sensor parameter with a scan tool, command the EVAP vent valve OFF. Verify the FTP Sensor parameter is 0 inches H2O.
- If not at the specified value, test for a blockage or a restriction in the EVAP vent hose, or replace the EVAP vent solenoid valve.
- If the vehicle passes the Circuit/System Verification test, then operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that are captured in the Freeze Frame/Failure Records List.
