- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (ACTIVATE THE EVAP PURGE VSV)
*a VSV is on *b VSV is off - Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
- Disconnect the fuel vapor feed hose (on the canister side) from the purge VSV.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Turn the GTS on.
- Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).
Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Utility
Tester Display Inspection Mode - Start the engine.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Activate the EVAP Purge VSV.
Powertrain > Engine > Active Test
Tester Display Activate the EVAP Purge VSV - When the purge VSV is operated using the GTS, check whether the port of the purge VSV applies suction to your finger.
OK
GTS Operation Specified Condition ON Purge VSV port applies suction to finger OFF Purge VSV port applies no suction to finger HINT:
Jiggle the wire harness and connector to increase the likelihood of detecting malfunctions that do not always occur.
