On Board Diagnosis LogicNBEC0218NOTE:
If DTC P0440 is displayed with P1448, perform trouble diagno-
sis for DTC P1448 first. (See EC-573.)
This diagnosis detects leaks in the EVAP purge line using engine
intake manifold vacuum.
If pressure does not increase, the ECM will check for leaks in the
line between the fuel tank and EVAP canister purge volume con-
trol solenoid valve, under the following ªVacuum testº conditions.
The vacuum cut valve bypass valve is opened to clear the line
between the fuel tank and the EVAP canister purge volume control
solenoid valve. The EVAP canister vent control valve will then be
closed to shut the EVAP purge line off. The EVAP canister purge
volume control solenoid valve is opened to depressurize the EVAP
purge line using intake manifold vacuum. After this occurs, the
EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve will be closed.

Malfunction is detected when EVAP control system has a leak,
EVAP control system does not operate properly.
CAUTION:
IUse only a genuine NISSAN fuel filler cap as a replace-
ment. If an incorrect fuel filler cap is used, the MIL may
come on.
IIf the fuel filler cap is not tightened properly, the MIL may
come on.
IUse only a genuine NISSAN rubber tube as a replacement.

This system has a swirl control valve in the intake passage of each
cylinder.
While idling and during low engine speed operation, the swirl con-
trol valve closes. Thus the velocity of the air in the intake passage
increases, promoting the vaporization of the fuel and producing a
swirl in the combustion chamber.
Because of this operation, this system tends to increase the burn-
ing speed of the gas mixture, improve fuel consumption, and
increase the stability in running conditions.
Also, except when idling and during low engine speed operation,
this system opens the swirl control valve. In this condition, this
system tends to increase power by improving intake efficiency via
reduction of intake flow resistance, intake flow.
The solenoid valve controls swirl control valve's shut/open condi-
tion. This solenoid valve is operated by the ECM.

2) Set voltmeter probes between ECM terminal 63 [Heated oxy-
gen sensor 1 (front) right bank signal] or 62 [Heated oxygen
sensor 1 (front) left bank signal] and engine ground.
3) Check the following with engine speed held at 2,000 rpm con-
stant under no-load.
IThe voltage should go above 0.70V at least once.
IThe voltage should go below 0.21V at least once.
