  1. Start engine and install scan tool.
  2. Monitor "FUEL TANK PRESSURE" parameter on the current data list with depressing increasing engine speed.

    Specification: Signal value will vary between -2mmHg to 2 mmHg depending on variation in engine speed.

    • Approx. 0~2 mmHg(2.5V) at Ig. On
    • Approx. 0 mmHg at 1400rpm.
    • Approx. -2 mmHg at 4000rpm.
  3. Is signal value within specification?

    YES: 

    • Check for poor connection between ECM and component: backed out terminal, improper mating, broken locks or poor terminal to wire connection. Repair as necessary and go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
