DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors F44, F101
- Harness connectors E20, F32
- IPDM E/R harness connector E122
- Harness for open or short between EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve and IPDM E/R
- Harness for open or short between ECM and IPDM E/R
1. : Repair harness or connectors.
CHECK EVAP CANISTER PURGE VOLUME CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE OUTPUT SIGNAL CIR-CUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
3. Check harness continuity between ECM terminal 10 and EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve terminal 2. Refer to Wiring Diagram .
  Continuity should exist.
4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG
1. OK (With CONSULT-II) : GO TO 5.
2. OK (Without CONSULT-II) : GO TO 6.
3. NG : GO TO 4.
DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors F44, F101
- Harness for open or short between EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve and ECM
1. : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
CHECK EVAP CANISTER PURGE VOLUME CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE OPERATION
With CONSULT-II
1. Reconnect all harness connectors disconnected.
2. Start engine.
3. Perform "PURG VOL CONT/V" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT-II. Check that engine speed varies according to the valve opening.
