ELECTRIC VACUUM PUMP WARNING LIGHT REMAINS ILLUMINATED (EVP CONTROL UNIT) DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1 VERIFY COMMUNICATION CONDITION OF ELECTRIC VACUUM PUMP CONTROL
  • Implement the network test using the M-MDS. (See NETWORK TEST .)
  • Is the EVP (electric vacuum pump control unit) test result displayed as pass?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 4.
2 VERIFY EVP CONTROL UNIT DTCs
Yes Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [EVP CONTROL UNIT] .)
No Go to the next step.
3 DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS INSTRUMENT CLUSTER OR EVP CONTROL UNIT
  • Turn on and off all the indicator lights and warning lights in the instrument cluster using the simulation function WL+IL in the M-MDS instrument cluster. (See ACTIVE COMMAND MODES INSPECTION [INSTRUMENT CLUSTER] .)
  • Does the electric vacuum pump warning light turn on/off according to the simulation operation?
Yes Replace the EVP control unit.
(See EVP CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Go to Step 7.
No Replace the instrument cluster.
(See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Go to Step 7.
4 INSPECT EVP CONTROL UNIT POWER SUPPLY
  • Inspect for EVP control unit power supply as followings:
    • Battery voltage
    • Fuse (EVPS 30A)
    • Wiring harness and connectors between battery and EVP control unit terminal A
      • EVP control unit connector for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
  • Are inspection results normal?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
Go to Step 7.
5 INSPECT EVP CONTROL UNIT GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT OR POOR GROUND
  • Switch the ignition OFF.
  • Disconnect the EVP control unit connector.
  • Measure the resistance between EVP control unit terminal G (wiring harness side) and body ground.
  • Is the resistance 0-1 ohm?
Yes Go to the next step.
No
  • If the open circuit could be detected in the wiring harness:
    • Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between EVP control unit terminal G and body ground.

      If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
    • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

      If there is no common connector:

    • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.
      • Go to the next step.
  • If the resistance is out of specification:
    • Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between EVP control unit terminal G and body ground.

      If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a poor ground.
    • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

      If there is no common connector:

    • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a poor ground.
      • Go to the next step.
6 INSPECT HS-CAN RELATED WIRING HARNESS
Yes Replace the EVP control unit.
(See EVP CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
Go to the next step.
7 VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
  • Has the symptom troubleshooting been completed?
Yes Troubleshooting completed. (explain the contents of the servicing to the customer)
No Find the malfunctioning location referring to Action for Non-Repeatable Malfunction.
