DTC P0443: Evaporative Emission System Purge Control Valve Circuit
P0443 - EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM PURGE CONTROL VALVE CIRCUIT
| Description: | The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the state of the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister purge valve circuit output driver. The test fails when the signal moves outside the minimum or maximum limit for the commanded state. | ||
| Possible Causes: |
|
||
| Diagnostic Aids: | To verify normal function, monitor the EVAP canister purge valve signal PID EVAPPDC (or EVMV for electronic valve) and the signal voltage (PCM control side). With the valve closed, the EVAPPDC indicates a 0% duty cycle (0 mA for EVMV) and voltage approximately equal to battery voltage. When the valve is commanded fully open, EVAPPDC indicates 100% duty cycle (1000 mA for EVMV) and a voltage drop of 3 volts minimum is normal. Output test mode may be used to switch output on/off to verify function. | ||
