CONFIRMATION ENGINE RACING PATTERN
(a) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Start engine and warm it up with all the accessories switched OFF until the water temperature is stable.
(c) Race the engine at 2,500 - 3,000 rpm for about 3 min.
(d) When racing the engine at 3,000 rpm for 2 sec. and 2,000 rpm for 2 sec. alternately, check the wave-
form of the heated oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 2).
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame records
the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean
or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
1 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P0420) being output?
YES Go to relevant DTC chart (See page DI-14).
NO
2 Check gas leakage on exhaust system.
NG Repair or replace.

DTC P0440 Evaporative Emission Control System Mal-
function
DTC P0442 Evaporative Emission Control System Leak
Detected (Small Leak)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The vapor pressure sensor, VSV for canister closed valve (CCV) and VSV for pressure switching valve are
used to detect abnormalities in the evaporative emission control system.
The ECM decides whether there is an abnormality in the evaporative emission control system based on the
vapor pressure sensor signal.
DTC P0440 or P0442 is recorded by the ECM when evaporative emissions leak from the components within
the dotted line in Fig. 1 below, or when the vapor pressure sensor malfunctions.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451 is output after DTC P0440 or P0442, first troubleshoot DTC
P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0440 or P0442 next.
Ask the customer whether, after the MIL came on, the customer found the fuel tank cap loose and tight-
ened it. Also ask the customer whether the fuel tank cap was loose when refuelling. If the fuel tank cap
was loose, it was the cause of the DTC. If the fuel tank cap was not loose or if the customer was not
sure if it was loose, troubleshoot according to the following procedure.
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel
ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the
vapor pressure sensor.
