STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check data list item 212: Canister Pressure Sensor.
caution | To prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). |
(1) Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to HOW TO CONNECT THE SCAN TOOL (M.U.T.-IIISE) . (2) Turn on the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
(3) Remove the fuel cap.
(4) Set scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) to the data reading mode for item 212, Canister Pressure Sensor.- When altitude is 0 m (0 foot), 101 kPa (29.8 in.Hg).
- When altitude is 600 m (1,969 feet), 95 kPa (28.1 in.Hg).
- When altitude is 1,200 m (3,937 feet), 88 kPa (26.0 in.Hg).
- When altitude is 1,800 m (5,906 feet), 81 kPa (23.9 in.Hg).
(5) Turn off the power supply mode of the electric motor switch.
Is the sensor operating properly?
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting / Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions . Go to Step 2.
STEP 3. Replace the canister pressure sensor (integrated in evaporative emission canister).
