Mode E (Measurement of reference pressure for judgement)

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. Purpose: Judge the reference pressure stability.

    Judge as NG when the following conditions are established.

    Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value DTC
    Elapsed time after mode change ≥ 40s P2404
    |Pressure sensor maximum output value - Pressure sensor minimum output value| > 0.3 kPa (2.355 mmHg, 0.1 inHg)
  2. Purpose: Judge whether the reference pressure is within the normal range, and detect the vacuum pump and orifice malfunctions. Judge the vacuum pump performance stability.

    Judge as NG when the following conditions are established.

< Large leak (0.04 inch) >   P0455
Leak pressure > Reference pressure for judgement and  
lleakjdg = (Reference pressure for judgement) x 0.377 -(-0.341) ≥ lleakjdg  
< Very small leak (0.02 inch) >   P0456
Leak pressure > Reference pressure for judgement and < lleakjdg  

Time Needed for Diagnosis:  Approx. 23 min
