Component Operating Range:

DTC P0451, P0452 or P0453 is recorded by the ECM when the vapor pressure sensor malfunctions.

P0452 and P0453

When the pressure indicated by the vapor pressure sensor deviates below -3.999 kPa (-30 mmHg) or above 1.999 kPa (15 mmHg), the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the vapor pressure sensor. The ECM will turn on the MIL and a DTC will be set.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:
- If DTCs that are related to different systems are output simultaneously while terminal E2 is used as a ground terminal, terminal E2 may have an open circuit.
- Always troubleshoot DTCs P0441 (purge flow), P0446 (CCV), P0451, P0452 and P0453 (evaporative pressure sensor) before troubleshooting DTCs P0442, P0455 or P0456.
- Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, 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.
- When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the vapor pressure sensor.
