Mode D (Clogging of pipe diagnosis and leak pressure measurement)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Clogging of pipe 

    Purpose: Measure the time required for the evaporative emission system to reach the target negative pressure by the vacuum pump, and detect the clogging of pipe trouble.

    Judge as clogging of pipe malfunction if the evaporative emission system reaches to the target negative pressure within the specified time.

  2. Leak pressure measurement 

    Purpose: Measure the pressure (leak pressure) when the evaporative emission system becomes the negative pressure by the vacuum pump.

    Store the pressure as a leak pressure while the following conditions are met.
