Repair Verification

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.

With the engine running, the evaporative emission canister vent solenoid valve open and the evaporative emission canister purge solenoid valve

commanded to 100 percent, the fuel tank vacuum should not increase to more than -15 mmHg (-8 inches H2O).

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The evaporative emission (EVAP) canister vent valve is used for EVAP system diagnostics. The EVAP canister vent valve is a normally open

valve. Battery positive voltage is supplied directly to the EVAP canister vent valve. The engine control module (ECM) controls the solenoid by

grounding the control circuit with a solid state device called a driver. The driver is equipped with a feedback circuit that is pulled-up to a voltage.

The ECM can determine if the control circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to a voltage by monitoring the feedback voltage. If the ECM

detects the control circuit voltage is within a predetermined range when the circuit is commanded OFF, this DTC sets.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The engine speed is greater than 80 RPM.

* The ignition voltage is between 10-18 volts.

* The ECM has commanded the EVAP canister vent valve ON and OFF at least once during the ignition cycle.

* The DTCs runs continuously once the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P0449

The ECM detects the voltage on the EVAP canister vent valve control circuit is between 2.6-4.6 volts when the driver is commanded OFF. The

condition exists for less than 4 seconds or for a cumulative of 30 seconds.
