Diagnostic Aids

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

Scan tool output controls, snapshot, and plot functions can help detect erratic sensor response. To look at the sensor signal under vacuum conditions, use snapshot and the purge/seal function to capture data while commanding purge to 20 percent, then plot the data to look for non-linear sensor operation. A similar inspection can be done for the pressure side of the sensor range by applying pressure with the J 41413-200  Evaporative Emissions System Tester (EEST) while taking a snapshot. See Special Tools . DO NOT exceed 5 inches H2O when applying pressure.
