Checking for intermittent faults




- Ignition on
- Activate the evaporative emission system (EVAP) valve.
A click should be heard when the evaporative emission system (EVAP) valve is activated.





Is the evaporative emission system (EVAP) valve working?

Yes - Fault-tracing information

No - Checking the connector

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the connector








- Ignition off
- Check the evaporative emission system (EVAP) valve connector. Check for contact resistance and oxidation
- Reinstall components, reconnect connectors etc.
- Ignition on
- Activate the evaporative emission system (EVAP) valve.
Check for a click from the canister purge (CP) valve.
If the canister purge (CP) valve now functions, the cause of the fault was loose connections in the connector.
