DTC P0441 Evaporative Emission Control System
Incorrect Purge Flow
DTC P0446 Evaporative Emission Control System Vent
Control Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The vapor pressure sensor and VSV for vapor pressure sensor are used to detect abnormalities in the evap-
orative emission control system.
The ECM decides whether there is an abnormality in the evaporative emission control system based on the
vapor pressure sensor signal.
DTCs P0441 and P0446 are recorded by the ECM when evaporative emissions leak from the components
within the dotted line in fig. 1 below, or when there is a malfunction in either the VSV for EVAP, the VSV for
vapor pressure sensor, or in the vapor pressure sensor itself.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
TOYOTA hand±held tester:
HINT:

If DTC P0441 (Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow), P0446 (Evaporative
Emission Control System Vent Control Malfunction), P0450 (Evaporative Emission Control System
Pressure Sensor Malfunction) or P0451 is output after DTC P0440 (Evaporative Emission Control Sys-
tem Malfunction), first troubleshoot DTC P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected,
troubleshoot DTC P0440 next.

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 warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio 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
VSV for EVAP, charcoal canister and vapor pressure sensor.

5 Check for open and short in harness and connector between vapor pressure
sensor and ECM (See page IN±31).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
Replace vapor pressure sensor.
6 Check purge flow.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the TOYOTA hand±
held tester.
(c) Disconnect the vacuum hose for the VSV for EVAP from
the charcoal canister.

CHECK:
When the VSV for EVAP is operated by the TOYOTA hand±
held tester, check whether the disconnected hose applies suc-
tion to your finger.
OK:
VSV is ON:
Disconnected hose applies suction to your finger.
VSV is OFF:
Disconnected hose applies no suction to your finger.
OK Go to step 10.
