•

The engine speed is 1,040 – 3,000 rpm.

•

The air flow into the engine is between 7.0 – 16.0 g/s and not changing more than 3.0 g/s

•

The engine intake air temperature (IAT) at engine start-up is more than –30° C.

•

The engine is operating for more than 7 minutes.

•

The engine is operating in Closed Loop.

•

The calculated TWC temperature is between 500 – 750° C and steady.

•

The above conditions exist for approximately 17 minutes.

•

DTCs P0420 and P0430 run once a drive cycle. The ECM will attempt to run this diagnostic up to three times a
drive cycle.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM determines that the catalyst efficiency has degraded below a calibrated threshold for more than 4 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

•

The control module activates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that
the diagnostic runs and fails.

•

The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic
fails, the control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the
second consecutive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure.
The control module writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve Control Circuit DTCs are Type B DTCs. Refer to 1.4

Diagnostic Trouble Codes in

this Section, for action taken when a Type B DTC sets and conditions for clearing Type B DTCs.

7.24 DTC P0443, P0458 or P0459

DTC Descriptors

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:

•

DTC P0443 – Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Solenoid Circuit Malfunction

•

DTC P0458 – Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Solenoid Circuit Low Voltage

•

DTC P0459 – Evaporative Emission Control System Purge Solenoid Circuit High Voltage

Circuit Description

The Engine control relay applies ignition positive battery voltage to the evaporative emission (EVAP) purge solenoid.

Using a device called a driver, the ECM applies a pulse width modulated (PWM) ground to the EVAP solenoid control
circuit to purge the fuel vapour from the EVAP canister into the intake manifold.

The driver has a feedback circuit that is pulled-up to a voltage. The ECM monitors the driver feedback circuit to
determine if the control circuit is open, shorted to ground or shorted to a positive voltage.

An EVAP purge solenoid valve control circuit DTC sets if the ECM detects the voltage on the EVAP solenoid control
circuit outside the predetermined range when the solenoid is commanded off.

Conditions for Running the DTC

DTC P0443 and P0458

Runs continuously once the following conditions are met:

•

The engine speed is greater than 80 rpm

•

The ignition voltage is 10.0 – 16.0 V.

•

The ECM has commanded the EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve on and off at least once during the ignition cycle.

DTC P0459

Runs continuously once the following conditions are met:

Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics

Page 6C1-2–124

•

The engine speed is greater than 80 rpm

•

The ignition voltage is 10.0 – 16.0 V.

•

The fuel system is in closed loop.

•

The engine speed is above idle.

•

The engine is at operating temperature.

•

The ECM has commanded the EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve on and off with a duty cycle of greater than 2.5%.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0443

The ECM detects the voltage on the EVAP solenoid control circuit is not within the predetermined range when the
solenoid is commanded off.

DTC P0458

The ECM detects the voltage on the EVAP solenoid control circuit is less than 2.6 V when the solenoid is commanded
off.

DTC P0459

The ECM detects the voltage on the EVAP solenoid control circuit is greater than 4.6 V when the solenoid is
commanded on.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve Control Circuit DTCs are Type B DTCs. Refer to 1.4

Diagnostic Trouble Codes in

this Section, for action taken when a Type B DTC sets and conditions for clearing Type B DTCs.

Additional Information

•

Refer to 6C1-1 Engine Management – V6 – General Information for details of the EVAP Purge Solenoid Valve
operation.

•

For an intermittent fault condition, refer to 5.2

Intermittent Fault Conditions in this Section.

•

Since fault condition in a wiring connector may trigger DTCs, always test the connectors related to this diagnostic
procedure for shorted terminals or poor wiring connection before replacing any component. Refer to 8A Electrical -
Body and Chassis for information on electrical fault diagnosis.

•

To assist diagnosis, refer to 3 Wiring Diagrams and Connector Charts in this Section, for the system wiring
diagram and connector charts.
