STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test item 15: Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.
caution | To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958. |
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator test mode for item 15, Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.- An operation sound should be heard and vibration should be felt when the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid is operated.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Is the solenoid 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 2. Check harness connector D-44 at evaporative emission ventilation solenoid for damage.
STEP 3. Check the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid connector D-44.
(2) Measure the resistance between evaporative emission ventilation solenoid side connector terminal No. 1 and No. 2.Standard value: 17 - 21 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]
Is the measured resistance between 17 and 21 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]?
Go to Step 4. Replace the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid. Then go to Step 7.
STEP 4. Check harness connector B-26 at MFI for damage.
STEP 5. MFI connector B-27 (terminal No. 117) and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid connector D-44 (terminal No. 1).
STEP 6. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test item 15: Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.
STEP 7. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 23 . (2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Is DTC P0499 set?
Retry the troubleshooting. The inspection is complete.
