The ECM controls the purge flow of evaporative emissions (HC) in the canister
in accordance with engine conditions.
Evapotative Emission
Control
(See page EG-54)Approximately five hours after the ignition switch has been turned OFF, the
ECM operates the canister pump module to detect any evaporative emission
leakage occurring in the EVAP (evaporative emission) control system through
changes in the 0.02 in. leak pressure.
Charging Control
(See page EG-65)The ECM regulates the charging voltage of the generator in accordance with the
driving conditions and the charging state of the battery.

Air-fuel Ratio Sensor and Heated Oxygen Sensor
1) General
The air-fuel ratio sensor and heated oxygen sensor differ in output characteristics.
Approximately 0.4V is constantly applied to the air-fuel ratio sensor, which outputs an amperage that
varies in accordance with the oxygen concentration in the exhaust emission. The ECM converts the
changes in the output amperage into voltage in order to linearly detect the present air-fuel ratio. The
air-fuel ratio sensor data is read out by the hand-held tester.
The output voltage of the heated oxygen sensor changes in accordance with the oxygen concentration
in the exhaust emission. The ECM uses this output voltage to determine whether the present air-fuel
ratio is richer or leaner than the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

Service Tip
The canister pump module performs the EVAP leak check. This check is done approximately five
hours after the engine is turned off. So you may hear sound coming from underneath the luggage
compartment for several minutes. It does not indicate a malfunction.
The pinpoint pressure test procedure is carried out by pressurizing the fresh air line that runs from
the pump module to the air filler neck. For details, refer to the 2006 RAV4 Repair Manual (Pub.
No. RM01M1U).

10. EVAP (evaporative Emission) Control System
General
The EVAP (evaporative emission) control system prevents the vapor gas that is created in the fuel tank from
being released directly into the atmosphere.
The canister stores the vapor gas that has been created in the fuel tank.
The ECM controls the purge VSV in accordance with the driving conditions in order to direct the vapor
gas into the engine, where it is burned.
In this system, the ECM checks the evaporative emission leak and outputs DTC (Diagnostic Trouble
Code) in the event of a malfunction. An EVAP (evaporative emission) leak check consists of an
application of a vacuum pressure to the system and monitoring the changes in the system pressure in order
to detect a leakage.
This system consists of the purge VSV, canister, refueling valve, canister pump module, and ECM.
The ORVR (Onboard Refueling Vapor Recovery) function is provided in the refueling valve.
The canister pressure sensor has been included to the canister pump module.
The canister filter has been provided on the fresh air line. This canister filter is maintenance-free.
The followings are the typical conditions for enabling an EVAP leak check:
Typical Enabling
Condition
Five hours have elapsed after the engine has been turned OFF*.
Altitude: Below 2400 m (8000 feet)
Battery voltage: 10.5 V or more
Ignition switch: OFF
Engine coolant temperature: 4.4 to 35C (40 to 95F)
Intake air temperature: 4.4 to 35C (40 to 95F)
*: If engine coolant temperature does not drop below 35C (95F), this time should be extended to 7hours.
Even after that, if the temperature is not less than 35
C (95F), the time should be extended to 9.5 hours.

canister into the intake manifold. In system monitoring mode, this valve
controls the introduction of the vacuum into the fuel tank.
Canister FilterPrevents dust and debris in the fresh air from entering the system.
ECM
Controls the canister pump module and purge VSV in accordance with
the signals from various sensors, in order to achieve a purge volume that
suits the driving conditions. In addition, the ECM monitors the system
for any leakage and outputs a DTC if a malfunction is found.

Construction and Operation
1) Refueling Valve
The refueling valve consists of the chamber A, chamber B, and restrictor passage. A constant
atmospheric pressure is applied to the chamber A.
During refueling, the internal pressure of the fuel tank increases. This pressure causes the refueling
valve to lift up, allowing the vapor gas to enter the canister.
The restrictor passage prevents the large amount of vacuum that is created during purge operation or
system monitoring operation from entering the fuel tank, and limits the flow of the vapor gas from the
fuel tank to the canister. If a large volume of vapor gas recirculates into the intake manifold, it will
affect the air-fuel ratio control of the engine. Therefore, the role of the restrictor passage is to help
prevent this from occurring.
2) Fuel Inlet (Fresh Air Line)
In accordance with the change of structure of the EVAP control system, the location of a fresh air line
inlet has been changed from the air cleaner section to the near fuel inlet. The flesh air from the atmosphere
and drain air cleaned by the canister will go in and out of the system through the passage shown below.

System Operation
1) Purge Flow Control
When the engine has satisfied the predetermined conditions (closed loop, engine coolant temperature
above 74
C (165F), etc.), the stored vapor gas are purged from the canister whenever the purge VSV
is opened by the ECM.
The ECM will change the duty ratio cycle of the purge VSV, thus controlling purge flow volume. Purge
flow volume is determined by intake manifold pressure and the duty ratio cycle of the purge VSV.
Atmospheric pressure is allowed into the canister to ensure that purge flow is constantly maintained
whenever purge vacuum is applied to the canister.
2) ORVR (On-board Refueling Vapor Recovery)
When the internal pressure of the fuel tank increases during refueling, this pressure causes the diaphragm
in the refueling valve to lift up, allowing the vapor gas to enter the canister. Because the vent valve is
always open (even when the engine is stopped) when the system is in a mode other than the monitoring
mode, the air that has been cleaned through the canister is discharged outside the vehicle via the fresh
air line. If the vehicle is refueled in the monitoring mode, the ECM will recognize the refueling by way
of the canister pressure sensor, which detects the sudden pressure increase in the fuel tank, and will open
the vent valve.
