36. PERFORM EVAPORATIVE SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE)
NOTICE:
- The Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) consists of five steps performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 minutes.
- Do not perform the EVAP SYSTEM CHECK when the fuel tank is more than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed. If the cut-off valve is closed, the fuel tank leak check is not possible.
- Do not run the engine during this operation.
- When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing an Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).
(a) Clear the DTCs DTC Check / Clear.
(b) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.
(c) After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
HINT: If no pending DTCs are found, the repair has been successfully completed.

HINT: Unit expressions
- [kPa-a (mmHg-a)] denotes absolute pressure.
- [kPa-g (mmHg-g)] denotes gauge pressure (relative pressure).
- On the Techstream, choose the unit of measurement according to the inspection procedure.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

5 hours* after the ignition switch is turned off, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system. The ECM monitors for leaks and actuator malfunctions based on the EVAP pressure.
HINT: *: If the engine coolant temperature is not below 35°C (95°F) 5 hours after the ignition switch is turned to off, the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not below 35°C (95°F) 7 hours after the ignition switch is turned to off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.





*: If only a small amount of fuel is in the fuel tank, it takes longer for the EVAP pressure to stabilize.





P2420: Vent valve stuck open (vent)
In operation C, the vent valve turns ON (closes) and the EVAP system pressure is then measured by the ECM using the canister pressure sensor to conduct an EVAP leak check. If the pressure does not increase when the vent valve is open, the ECM interprets this as the vent valve being stuck open. The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
