Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid Check
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the evaporative emission canister and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid assembly.
- Connect a plug to nipple (B) of the evaporative emission canister and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid assembly.
- Check air tightness by applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the battery to the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid and without applying voltage.VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION
Battery voltage Normal condition Applied Vacuum maintained Not applied Vacuum leaks - Measure the resistance between the terminals of the solenoid.
Standard value: 17 - 21 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]
