DTC Confirmation Test

Malfunction is detected when improper voltage is sent to PCM from EVAP Control System Pressure Sensor (EVAP-CSPS). Possible causes are:

Start engine and warm to normal operating temperature. Using a DVOM, backprobe PCM harness connector and measure voltage between ground and terminal 82 (Green/Orange wire) at PCM harness connector (fuel tank temperature sensor signal). See Figure and Figure . Ensure voltage is less than 4.2 volts. Turn ignition off and wait at least 10 seconds. Start engine and wait at least 20 seconds. If first trip DTC is sets, perform DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE . If first trip DTC is not set, problem may be intermittent. See TESTING PROCEDURE under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM in SELF-DIAGNOSTICS - INTRODUCTION article.
