P0453 - Evaporative Emission System Pressure Sensor/Switch High
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Mercury Mariner and 2010 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
P0453 - EVAPORATIVE EMISSION SYSTEM PRESSURE SENSOR/SWITCH HIGH
| Description: | The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors the evaporative emission (EVAP) control system fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor input signal to the PCM. The test fails when the signal average jumps above a minimum allowable calibrated parameter. | ||
| Possible Causes: |
|
||
| Diagnostic Aids: | An FTP voltage parameter identification (PID) reading greater than 4.85 volts with the ignition ON, engine OFF or with the ignition ON, engine running, indicates a concern is present. | ||
| Application | Key On Engine Off | Key On Engine Running | Continuous Memory |
