FUEL LEVEL
    

Is the current FUEL LEVEL less than it is on the on-board snapshot?

     
YES
     
     
     
Go to step 2.
     
NO
     
     
     
Drain the fuel until the FUEL LEVEL is less than it is on the on-board snapshot, then go to step 2.

?1.
Select the EVAP TEST in the INSPECTION MENU, then select the EVAP CVS OFF in the SINGLE SOLENOID with the HDS.

  

?2.
Take a snapshot with the HDS for 3 minutes without starting the engine.

?3.
Check the recorded snapshot parameter with the HDS:
MAX Value of FTP SENSOR (FINE)
MIN Value of FTP SENSOR (FINE)


Are the MAX and MIN values of the FTP SENSOR (FINE) within the range of ±0.67 kPa (0.2 inHg, 5 mmHg)?

     
YES
     
     
     
Go to step 3.
     
NO
     
     
     
Go to step 5.

FTP sensor performance check 1:

FTP sensor performance check 1
?1.
Check the FTP SENSOR (FINE) in the recorded snapshot with the HDS.

Does it vary 0.067 kPa (0.02 inHg, 0.5 mmHg) or more within 3 seconds?

     
YES
     
     
     
Go to step 4.
     
NO
     
     
     
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the FTP sensor, the EVAP canister vent shut valve, and the PCM. Also check for a blockage in the EVAP vent hose. If the on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the on-board snapshot.?
4.
FTP sensor performance check 2:

FTP sensor performance check 2
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Remove the FTP sensor.

?3.
Reconnect the following connector.
FTP sensor 3P connector

?4.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

?5.
Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.

?3.
Check for a blockage or damage at the FTP sensor ports (EVAP canister side and vent side).


Is there any blockage or damage?

     
YES
     
     
     
Remove the blockage, or replace the FTP sensor if needed.?
     
NO

EVAP canister vent shut valve check:

EVAP canister vent shut valve check
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.
Remove the right front floor undercover.

?3.
Disconnect the EVAP canister vent hose (A) from the EVAP canister (B), then connect a vacuum pump/gauge, 0?30 inHg, to the EVAP canister vent shut valve port as shown.


?4.
Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

?5.
Select the EVAP TEST in the INSPECTION MENU, then select the EVAP CVS OFF in the SINGLE SOLENOID with the HDS.

  

?6.
Try to apply vacuum to the valve (not more than 5.3 kPa (1.6 inHg, 40 mmHg)) while checking the FTP SENSOR (FINE) in the DATA LIST with the HDS.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the FTP sensor, do not apply more than 5.3 kPa (1.6 inHg, 40 mmHg) of vacuum.
