DTC    P0443    Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Control Valve Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

To reduce hydrocarbon emissions, evaporated fuel from the fuel tank is routed through a charcoal canister to the intake manifold for combustion in the cylinders.
The ECM changes the duty signals to the Purge VSV (Vacuum Switching Valve for Purge Control) so that the intake amount of hydrocarbon emissions is appropriate for the driving conditions (engine load, engine speed, vehicle speed, etc.) after the engine is warmed up.

DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

HINT:
Read freeze frame data using an intelligent tester. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

1.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ACTIVATE THE PURGE VSV CONTROL)


    A199328E02
  1. Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Disconnect the vacuum hose (charcoal canister side) from the purge VSV.

  1. Start the engine.

  1. Turn the tester on.

  1. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Activate the VSV for Evap Control.

  1. When the purge VSV is operated using the intelligent tester, check whether the port of the purge VSV applies suction to your finger.

    OK:
    Tester Operation
    Specified Condition
    VSV ON
    Purge VSV port applies suction to finger
    VSV OFF
    Purge VSV port applies no suction to finger

4.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PURGE VSV - ECM)


    A107919E34
  1. Disconnect the purge VSV connector.

  1. Disconnect the ECM connector.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance (Check for Open):
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    B46-1 - B8-62 (PRG)
    Always
    Below 1 Ω

    Standard Resistance (Check for Short):
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    B46-1 or B8-62 (PRG) - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher

5.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PURGE VSV - INTEGRATION RELAY)


    A201267E01
  1. Disconnect the purge VSV connector.

  1. Remove the integration relay (EFI relay) from the engine room relay block and disconnect the integration relay connector.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance (Check for Open):
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    B46-2 - 1E-8
    Always
    Below 1 Ω

    Standard Resistance (Check for Short):
    Tester Connection
    Condition
    Specified Condition
    B46-2 or 1E-8 - Body ground
    Always
    10 kΩ or higher
