DTC Descriptor
DTC P0446
- Evaporative Emissions Vent System Performance
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
This DTC tests the evaporative emission (EVAP) system for a restricted or blocked evaporative emission vent path that would cause excess
amounts of vacuum to be developed in the evaporative emission system. With the purge valve open and the canister vent valve open, if the
evaporative emission system vacuum goes above a calibrated threshold, the test will fail.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* DTCs P0106, P0107, P0108, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0120, P0121, P0122, P0123, P0220, P0222, P0223, P0442, P0443, P0449, P0451,
P0452, P0453, P0454, P0464, P0496, P0608, P0609, P0641, P0651, P1516, P2101, P2119, P2120, P2122, P2123, P2125, P2127, P2128,
P2135, P2138 are not set.
* The ignition voltage is between 11-18 V.
* The barometric pressure (BARO) is more than 74 kPa.
* The fuel level is between 15-85 percent.
* The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is less than 35掳C (95掳F).
* The intake air temperature (IAT) is between 4-30掳C (39-86掳F).
* DTC P0446 runs once per cold start when the above conditions are met.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
* The fuel tank vacuum is greater than 12 inches H2O vacuum for 5 seconds.
OR
* The fuel tank pressure is less than -2.5 inches H2O or more than +5 inches for 60 seconds after a cold start.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0446 is a Type B DTC.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
DTC P0446 is a Type B DTC.
Diagnostic Aids
* An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged evaporative emission vent housing, a temporary blockage at the evaporative
emission canister vent solenoid valve inlet, or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system may also cause a poor fuel fill condition.
* An evaporative emission canister filter that is restricted can cause this DTC to set.
