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 three main components:

The EVAP leak detection pump pressure sensor performs a correlation to barometric pressure (BARO). After a short delay period, the EVAP leak detection pump pressure sensor, absolute, reading is compared to the BARO. Large deviations will increment the fail counter threshold and sets a P24B9.

There are two different threshold calibrations used in the comparison to the BARO. A smaller threshold is used when there has been a recent BARO update and then a larger threshold value is used when there has not been a recent BARO update.
