  • Record the snapshot data on the repair order.
- Go to the next Step.
2 VERIFY IF SNAPSHOT DATA IS AFFECTED BY OTHER RELATED DTCs OCCURRING 
  • Using the M-MDS, perform the EVP control unit DTC inspection. (See DTC INSPECTION [EVP CONTROL UNIT] .)
  • Are following DTCs detected?
    • C101C:00

No Go to the next Step.
3 DETERMINE IF EVP CONTROL UNIT POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION 
  • Verify the following items with regard to the recorded snapshot data from Step 1.
    • VPS_FBK
    • VPWR
  • Is the snapshot data VPWR value is 8.3-17.4 V when the snapshot data VPS_FBK is On.
Yes Go to the next Step.
No VPWR PID is below 8.3 V: 
4 DETERMINE WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS PAST OR PRESENT 
NOTE:
  • When clearing the DTC, the snapshot data is also cleared at the same time. Snapshot data is recorded if it is not recorded in Step 1.
  • Using the M-MDS, clear the DTC from the EVP control unit. (See CLEARING DTC [EVP CONTROL UNIT] .)

  • Disconnect the EVP control unit connector.
  • Access the VS1 and VS2 PIDs using the M-MDS.
  • Access the simulation item VPS_FBK using the M-MDS.
  • Verify PIDs VS 1 and VS2 when the electric vacuum pump was operated for 10 s by simulation item VPS FBK.
  • Are VS1 and VS2 PIDs 31.5 kPa {236 mmHg, 9.30 inHg}or more?
Yes Go to the next Step.
No Go to Step 7.
5 DRIVE VEHICLE THEN VERIFY DTC REPEATABILITY 
Yes Go to Step 7.
No Go to the next Step.
6 DRIVE VEHICLE THEN VERIFY DTC REPEATABILITY BASED ON SERVICE QUESTIONING RESULTS AND SNAPSHOT DATA 
  • Using the M-MDS, clear the DTC from the EVP control unit. (See CLEARING DTC [EVP CONTROL UNIT] .)
  • Drive the vehicle based on the service questions content and snapshot data driving conditions.
  • Using the M-MDS, perform the EVP control unit DTC inspection. (See DTC INSPECTION [EVP CONTROL UNIT] .)
  • Is the same Pending DTC present?
Yes Go to Step 8.
No DTC troubleshooting completed. Explain to the customer that there are no malfunctions with the vehicle based on the contents of the servicing.
7 INSPECT VACUUM LINE 
Yes Go to the next Step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning part, then go to Step 9.
8 INSPECT ELECTRIC VACUUM PUMP 
Yes Go to the next Step.
No Replace the electric vacuum pump, then go to the next Step.
(See ELECTRIC VACUUM PUMP REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
9 VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED 
Yes Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
If the malfunction recurs, replace the EVP control unit, then go to the next Step. (See EVP CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
