Diagnostic Instructions
DTC Descriptor
| DTC P0496 00: Evaporative Emission (EVAP)
System Flow During Non-Purge |
Circuit/System Description
This DTC tests for undesired intake manifold vacuum flow to the
evaporative emission (EVAP) system. The engine control module (ECM)
seals the EVAP system by commanding the EVAP canister purge
solenoid valve OFF and the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve ON.
The ECM monitors the fuel tank pressure sensor to determine if a
vacuum is being drawn on the EVAP system. If vacuum in the EVAP
system is more than a predetermined value within a predetermined
time, this DTC sets. The following table illustrates the
relationship between the ON and OFF states, and the open or closed
states of the EVAP canister purge solenoid and EVAP canister vent
solenoid valves.

Circuit/System Testing
| 1. |
Disconnect the EVAP vent pipe
from the Q13 Evaporative Emission Vent Solenoid Valve. |
| 2. |
Seal the EVAP vent pipe using
a plug from the EN 41413-300 EVAP Cap And Plug Kit
. |
| 3. |
Observe the scan tool Fuel
Tank Pressure Sensor parameter. The Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor
parameter should be less than 1.7 V. |
| ⇒ |
If the scan tool Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor
parameter is greater than the specified range, replace the Q12
Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid Valve. |
