Circuit/System Verification

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2013 GMC Yukon XL, 2013 GMC Yukon, 2013 Chevrolet Suburban, 2013 Chevrolet Avalanche, and 2013 Cadillac Escalade EXT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition ON and fuel cap removed, verify the scan tool FTP sensor parameter is between 1.3-1.7 V.
  2. Install the fuel cap.
  3. Engine running, the EVAP vent solenoid valve open, command the EVAP purge solenoid valve to 100 % with a scan tool. The reading should not increase to greater than -15 mm Hg (-8 in H2O).
  4. Using the scan tool, decrease the canister purge duty cycle from 100 % to 0 %. The vacuum should decrease to near zero.
    • If the fuel tank vacuum does not return to zero or appears to decrease too slowly go to the restriction section in Circuit/System Testing .
  5. Operate the vehicle within the conditions for running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the freeze frame/failure records data.
