P0455

EVAP gross leak

The leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured.

The reference pressure is measured at the start and at the end of the leak check.

If the stabilized pressure is higher than [second reference pressure x 0.2], the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a large leak.

  • Fuel tank cap (loose)
  • Leakage from EVAP line

    (Canister - Fuel tank)

  • Leakage from EVAP line

    (Purge VSV - Canister)

  • Canister pump module
  • Leakage from fuel tank
  • Leakage from canister

P0456

EVAP small leak

The leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured.

The reference pressure is measured at the start and at the end of the leak check.

If the stabilized pressure is higher than the second reference pressure, the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a small leak.

  • Fuel tank cap (loose)
  • Leakage from EVAP line

    (Canister - Fuel tank)

  • Leakage from EVAP line

  • Leakage from canister

DESCRIPTION

The description can be found in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) System 3UR-FE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: RELATED DTCS (2008 LX570)+ .

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Refer to the EVAP System 3UR-FE ENGINE CONTROL: SFI SYSTEM: RELATED DTCS (2008 LX570)+ .

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

5 hours* after the engine switch is turned off, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system. The ECM monitors for leaks and actuator malfunctions based on the EVAP pressure.

HINT:

*: If the engine coolant temperature is not below 35°C (95°F) 5 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not below 35°C (95°F) 7 hours after the engine switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.

Sequence

Operation

Description

Duration

-

ECM activation

Activated by soak timer 5, 7 or 9.5 hours after engine switch turned off.

-

A

Atmospheric pressure measurement

Vent valve turned off (vent) and EVAP system pressure measured by ECM in order to register atmospheric pressure.

If pressure in EVAP system not between 70 kPa-a and 110 kPa-a (525 mmHg-a and 825 mmHg-a), ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.

10 seconds

B

First reference pressure measurement

In order to determine reference pressure, leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) through reference orifice and then ECM checks if leak detection pump and vent valve operate normally.

60 seconds

C

EVAP system pressure measurement

Vent valve turned on (closed) to shut EVAP system.

Negative pressure (vacuum) created in EVAP system, and EVAP system pressure then measured.

Write down measured value as it will be used in leak check.

If EVAP pressure does not stabilize within 15 minutes, ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.

15 minutes*

D

Purge VSV monitor

Purge VSV opened and then EVAP system pressure measured by ECM.

Large increase indicates normality.

10 seconds

E

Second reference pressure measurement

After second reference pressure measurement, leak check performed by comparing first and second reference pressure.

If stabilized system pressure higher than second reference pressure, ECM determines that EVAP system leaking.

60 seconds

-

Final check

Atmospheric pressure measured and then monitoring result recorded by ECM.

-

*: If only a small amount of fuel is in the fuel tank, it takes longer for the EVAP pressure to stabilize.



(a) P0455: EVAP gross leak

In operation C, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than [second reference pressure x 0.2] (near atmospheric pressure), the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a large leakage, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC (2 trip detection logic).

(b) P0456: EVAP very small leak

In operation C, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than the second reference pressure, the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a small leakage, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC (2 trip detection logic).
