EVAP/PURGE SOLENOID
DESCRIPTION
The duty cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid (DCP)
regulates the rate of vapor flow from the EVAP can-
ister to the intake manifold. The Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) operates the solenoid.
OPERATION
During the cold start warm-up period and the hot
start time delay, the PCM does not energize the sole-
noid. When de-energized, no vapors are purged. The
PCM de-energizes the solenoid during open loop oper-
ation.
The engine enters closed loop operation after it
reaches a specified temperature and the time delay
ends. During closed loop operation, the PCM cycles
(energizes and de-energizes) the solenoid 5 or 10
times per second, depending upon operating condi-
tions. The PCM varies the vapor flow rate by chang-
ing solenoid pulse width. Pulse width is the amount
of time that the solenoid is energized. The PCM
adjusts solenoid pulse width based on engine operat-
ing condition.
REMOVAL
The duty cycle evaporative (EVAP) canister purge
solenoid is located in the engine compartment near
the brake master cylinder (Fig. 10).
(1) Disconnect electrical connector at solenoid.
(2) Disconnect vacuum lines at solenoid.
(3) Lift solenoid slot (Fig. 10) from mounting
bracket for removal.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position solenoid slot to mounting bracket.
(2) Connect vacuum lines to solenoid. Be sure vac-
uum lines are firmly connected and not leaking or
damaged. If leaking, a Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC) may be set with certain emission packages.
(3) Connect electrical connector to solenoid.
FUEL FILLER CAP
DESCRIPTION
The plastic fuel tank filler tube cap is threaded
onto the end of the fuel fill tube. Certain models are
equipped with a 1/4 turn cap.
OPERATION
The loss of any fuel or vapor out of fuel filler tube
is prevented by the use of a pressure-vacuum fuel fill
cap. Relief valves inside the cap will release fuel tank
pressure at predetermined pressures. Fuel tank vac-
uum will also be released at predetermined values.
This cap must be replaced by a similar unit if
replacement is necessary. This is in order for the sys-
tem to remain effective.
CAUTION: Remove fill cap before servicing any fuel
system component to relieve tank pressure. If
equipped with a California emissions package and a
Leak Detection Pump (LDP), the cap must be tight-
ened securely. If cap is left loose, a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) may be set.
REMOVAL
If replacement of the 1/4 turn fuel tank filler tube
cap is necessary, it must be replaced with an identi-
cal cap to be sure of correct system operation.

OPERATION
The main purpose of the LDP is to pressurize the
fuel system for leak checking. It closes the EVAP sys-
tem vent to atmospheric pressure so the system can
be pressurized for leak testing. The diaphragm is
powered by engine vacuum. It pumps air into the
EVAP system to develop a pressure of about 7.59
H2O (1/4) psi. A reed switch in the LDP allows the
PCM to monitor the position of the LDP diaphragm.
The PCM uses the reed switch input to monitor how
fast the LDP is pumping air into the EVAP system.
This allows detection of leaks and blockage. The LDP
assembly consists of several parts (Fig. 12). The sole-
noid is controlled by the PCM, and it connects the
upper pump cavity to either engine vacuum or atmo-
spheric pressure. A vent valve closes the EVAP sys-
tem to atmosphere, sealing the system during leak
testing. The pump section of the LDP consists of a
diaphragm that moves up and down to bring air in
through the air filter and inlet check valve, and
pump it out through an outlet check valve into the
EVAP system. The diaphragm is pulled up by engine
vacuum, and pushed down by spring pressure, as the
LDP solenoid turns on and off. The LDP also has a
magnetic reed switch to signal diaphragm position to
the PCM. When the diaphragm is down, the switch is
closed, which sends a 12 V (system voltage) signal to
the PCM. When the diaphragm is up, the switch is
open, and there is no voltage sent to the PCM. This
allows the PCM to monitor LDP pumping action as it
turns the LDP solenoid on and off.
LDP AT REST (NOT POWERED)
When the LDP is at rest (no electrical/vacuum) the
diaphragm is allowed to drop down if the internal
(EVAP system) pressure is not greater than the
return spring. The LDP solenoid blocks the engine
vacuum port and opens the atmospheric pressure
port connected through the EVAP system air filter.
The vent valve is held open by the diaphragm. This
allows the canister to see atmospheric pressure (Fig.
13).
DIAPHRAGM UPWARD MOVEMENT
When the PCM energizes the LDP solenoid, the
solenoid blocks the atmospheric port leading through
the EVAP air filter and at the same time opens the
engine vacuum port to the pump cavity above the
diaphragm. The diaphragm moves upward when vac-
uum above the diaphragm exceeds spring force. This
upward movement closes the vent valve. It also
causes low pressure below the diaphragm, unseating
the inlet check valve and allowing air in from the
EVAP air filter. When the diaphragm completes its
upward movement, the LDP reed switch turns from
closed to open (Fig. 14).
DIAPHRAGM DOWNWARD MOVEMENT
Based on reed switch input, the PCM de-energizes
the LDP solenoid, causing it to block the vacuum
port, and open the atmospheric port. This connects
the upper pump cavity to atmosphere through the
EVAP air filter. The spring is now able to push the
diaphragm down. The downward movement of the
diaphragm closes the inlet check valve and opens the
outlet check valve pumping air into the evaporative
system. The LDP reed switch turns from open to
closed, allowing the PCM to monitor LDP pumping
(diaphragm up/down) activity (Fig. 15). During the
pumping mode, the diaphragm will not move down
far enough to open the vent valve. The pumping cycle
is repeated as the solenoid is turned on and off.
When the evaporative system begins to pressurize,
the pressure on the bottom of the diaphragm will
begin to oppose the spring pressure, slowing the
pumping action. The PCM watches the time from
when the solenoid is de-energized, until the dia-
phragm drops down far enough for the reed switch to

change from opened to closed. If the reed switch
changes too quickly, a leak may be indicated. The
longer it takes the reed switch to change state, the
tighter the evaporative system is sealed. If the sys-
tem pressurizes too quickly, a restriction somewhere
in the EVAP system may be indicated.
PUMPING ACTION
Action : During portions of this test, the PCM uses
the reed switch to monitor diaphragm movement.
The solenoid is only turned on by the PCM after the
reed switch changes from open to closed, indicating
that the diaphragm has moved down. At other times
during the test, the PCM will rapidly cycle the LDP
solenoid on and off to quickly pressurize the system.
During rapid cycling, the diaphragm will not move
enough to change the reed switch state. In the state
of rapid cycling, the PCM will use a fixed time inter-
val to cycle the solenoid. If the system does not pass
the EVAP Leak Detection Test, the following DTCs
may be set:

MAY BE DIFFERENT BETWEEN MODELS.
SECTION 1 - P1495 Leak Detection Pump
Solenoid Circuit-When the ignition key is turned
to9ON9, the LDP diaphragm should be in the down
position and the LDP reed switch should be closed. If
the EVAP system has residual pressure, the LDP dia-
phragm may be up. This could result in the LDP reed
switch being open when the key is turned to9ON9
and a P1494 fault could be set because the PCM is
expecting the reed switch to be closed.
After the key is turned9ON9, the PCM immedi-
ately tests the LDP solenoid circuit for electrical
faults. If a fault is detected, DTC P1495 will set, the

MIL will illuminate, and the remaining EVAP Leak
Detection Test is canceled.
SECTION 2 - P1494 Leak Detection Pump
Switch or Mechanical Fault-If DTC P1495 is not
set, the PCM will check for DTC P1494. If the LDP
reed switch was closed when the key was turned to
9ON9, the PCM energizes the LDP solenoid for up to
8 seconds and monitors the LDP switch. As the LDP
diaphragm is pulled up by engine vacuum, the LDP
reed switch should change from closed to open. If it
does not, the PCM sets a temporary fault (P1494) in
memory, and waits until the next time the Enabling
Conditions are met to run the test again. If this is
again detected, P1494 is stored and the MIL is illu-
minated. If the problem is not detected during the
next enabling cycle, the temporary fault will be
cleared.
However, if the PCM detects the reed switch open
when the key is turned to9ON9, the PCM must deter-
mine if this condition is due to residual pressure in
the EVAP system, or an actual fault. The PCM stores
information in memory on EVAP system purging
from previous engine run or drive cycles.
If little or no purging took place, residual pressure
could be holding the LDP diaphragm up, causing the
LDP switch to be open. Since this is not a malfunc-
tion, the PCM cancels the EVAP Leak Detection Test
without setting the temporary fault.
If there was sufficient purging during the previous
cycle to eliminate EVAP system pressure, the PCM
judges that this is a malfunction and sets a tempo-
rary fault in memory. The next time that the
Enabling Conditions are met, the test will run again.
If the fault is again detected, the MIL will illuminate
and DTC P1494 will be stored. If the fault is not
detected, the temporary fault will be cleared.
SECTION 3 - P1486 EVAP Leak Monitor
Pinched Hose Found-If no fault has been detected
so far, the PCM begins testing for possible blockage
in the EVAP system between the LDP and the fuel
tank. This is done by monitoring the time required
for the LDP to pump air into the EVAP system dur-
ing two to three pump cycles. If no blockage is
present, the LDP diaphragm is able to quickly pump
air out of the LDP each time the PCM turns off the
LDP solenoid. If a blockage is present, the PCM
detects that the LDP takes longer to complete each
pump cycle. If the pump cycles take longer than
expected (approximately 6 to 10 seconds) the PCM
will suspect a blockage. On the next drive when
Enabling Conditions are met, the test will run again.
If blockage is again detected, P1486 is stored, and
the MIL is illuminated.
SECTION4-NoDTCCanBeSetDuring This
Time-After the LDP blockage tests are completed,
the PCM then tests for EVAP system leakage. First,the PCM commands the LDP to rapidly pump for 20
to 50 seconds (depending on fuel level) to build pres-
sure in the EVAP system. This evaluates the system
J18-24-0 to see if it can be sufficiently pressurized.
This evaluation (rapid pump cycling) may occur sev-
eral times prior to leak checking. The LDP reed
switch does not close and open during rapid pumping
because the diaphragm does not travel through its
full range during this part of the test.
SECTION 5 - P0456, P0442, P0455 EVAP Leak
Monitor and Leak Detected-Next, the PCM per-
forms one or more test cycles by monitoring the time
required for the LDP reed switch to close (diaphragm
to drop) after the LDP solenoid is turned off.
If the switch does not close, or closes after a long
delay, it means that the system does not have any
significant leakage and the EVAP Leak Detection
Test is complete.
However, if the LDP reed switch closes quickly,
there may be a leak or the fuel level may be low
enough that the LDP must pump more to finish pres-
surizing the EVAP system. In this case, the PCM will
rapidly pump the LDP again to build pressure in the
EVAP system, and follow that by monitoring the time
needed for several LDP test cycles. This process of
rapid pumping followed by several LDP test cycles
may repeat several times before the PCM judges that
a leak is present.
When leaks are present, the LDP test cycle time
will be inversely proportional to the size of the leak.
The larger the leak, the shorter the test cycle time.
The smaller the leak, the longer the test cycle time.
DTC's may be set when a leak as small as 0.5 mm
(0.0209) diameter is present.
If the system detects a leak, a temporary fault will
be stored in PCM memory. The time it takes to detect
a .020, .040, or Large leak is based on calibrations
that vary from model to model. The important point
to remember is if a leak is again detected on the next
EVAP Leak Detection Test, the MIL will illuminate
and a DTC will be stored based on the size of leak
detected. If no leak is detected during the next test,
the temporary fault will be cleared.
DIAGNOSTIC TIPS During diagnosis, you can
compare the LDP solenoid activity with the monitor
sequence in Figure 6. If the PCM detects a problem
that could set a DTC, the testing is halted and LDP
solenoid activity will stop. As each section of the test
begins, it indicates that the previous section passed
successfully. By watching to see which tests complete,
you can see if any conditions are present that the
PCM considers abnormal.
For example, if the LDP solenoid is energized for
the test cycles to test for blockage (P1486), it means
that the LDP has already passed its test for P1494.
Then, if the PCM detects a possible blockage, it will

DESCRIPTION
A vacuum schematic for emission related items can
be found on the VECI label. Refer to Vehicle Emis-
sion Control Information (VECI) Label for label loca-
tion.
VAPOR CANISTER
DESCRIPTION
A maintenance free, EVAP canister is used on all
gasoline powered models. The canister is attached to
a two-piece support bracket located behind the left-
rear wheel.
OPERATION
The EVAP canister is filled with granules of an
activated carbon mixture. Fuel vapors entering the
EVAP canister are absorbed by the charcoal granules.
The canister serves two functions: as a temporary
fuel vapor storage point while refueling the vehicle
for the ORVR system, as a temporary vapor storage
point while the engine is running.
Fuel tank pressure vents into the EVAP canister.
Fuel vapors are temporarily held in the canister until
they can be drawn into the intake manifold. The duty
cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid allows the EVAP
canister to be purged at predetermined times and at
certain engine operating conditions.
Refer to ORVR for additional information.
