Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

The evaporative emission (EVAP) system uses a EVAP leak detection pump to test for system leaks. The EVAP leak detection pump assembly consists of the following components:

The EVAP leak detection vacuum pump stuck off test is performed by comparing an initial stabilized EVAP leak detection pump pressure sensor, absolute, reading to a second stabilized reading for a short period of time.

The EVAP leak detection vacuum pump stuck on test is performed after the switching valve transitions from vent to not venting, pump, position. If after the second EVAP leak detection pump pressure sensor reading, a difference between the two pressure readings indicates the EVAP leak detection vacuum pump is stuck on.
