DTC P0496: EVAP System High Purge Flow: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Sierra and 2003 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

This DTC tests for undesired intake manifold vacuum flow to the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) system. The control module seals the EVAP system by commanding the EVAP canister purge valve OFF and the EVAP canister vent valve ON. The control module monitors the Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor to determine if a vacuum is being drawn on the EVAP system. If vacuum in the EVAP system is more than a predetermined value within a predetermined time, this DTC sets.
