?1.
Install the fuel fill cap.

?2.
Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (A/T in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

?3.
Monitor the OBD STATUS for DTC P0453 in the DTCs MENU with the HDS.

OBD STATUS
P0453 FTP Sensor Circuit High Voltage
 

Does the HDS indicate FAILED?

     
YES
     
     
     
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 3.
     
NO
     
     
     
If the HDS indicates PASSED, intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the FTP sensor and the PCM. If the HDS indicates NOT COMPLETED, keep idling until a result comes on.

Is there about 5.0 V?

     
YES
     
     
     
Go to step 5.
     
NO
     
     
     
Go to step 6.
5.
Open wire check (PTANK line):

Open wire check (PTANK line)
?1.
Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0), or press the engine start/stop button to select the OFF mode.

?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS.


?3.
Disconnect the following connector.

?4.
Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.
Terminal A
FTP sensor 3P connector No. 2 (LT GRN)
Terminal B
Body ground


?5.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
IG LOCK (0) or OFF mode
FTP sensor 3P connector: disconnected
FTP sensor 3P connector No. 2: jumped to body ground
PCM connector A (51P): disconnected
Test circuit
PTANK
Test point 1
PCM connector A (51P) No. 42 (LT GRN)
Test point 2
Body ground


Is there continuity?

     
YES
     
     
     
The PTANK wire is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then do the repair verification.
     
NO
     
     
     
Repair an open in the PTANK wire between the PCM (A42) and the FTP sensor, then do the repair verification.
6.
Open wire check (SG6 line):

Open wire check (SG6 line)
?1.
