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.
DTC 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.

DTC Detecting Condition
Trouble Area
The pressure in the charcoal canister does not drop during
purge control (2 trip detection logic)
P0441
During purge cut–off, the pressure in the charcoal canister is
very low compared with atmospheric pressure
(2 trip detection logic)
Open or short in VSV circuit for EVAP
Open or short in VSV circuit for vapor pressure sensor
When VSV for vapor pressure sensor is OFF, ECM judges that
there is no continuity between vapor pressure sensor and
charcoal canister (2 trip detection logic)

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:If DTC P0441, P0446 or P0450 is output after DTC P0440, first troubleshoot DTC P0441, P0446 or
P0450. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0440 next.
LEXUS hand–held tester
1
Check VSV connector for EVAP, VSV connector for vapor pressure sensor and
vapor pressure sensor connector for looseness and disconnection.
NG
Repair or connect VSV or sensor connector.
OK
2
Check vacuum hose between intake manifold and VSV for EVAP, VSV for EVAP
and charcoal canister, charcoal canister and VSV for vapor pressure
sensor, and
VSV for vapor pressure sensor and vapor pressure sensor.
CHECK:
(a)
Check that the vacuum hose is connected correctly.
(b)
Check the vacuum hose for looseness and disconnection.
(c)
Check the vacuum hose for cracks, hole, damage and blockage.
NG
Repair or replace.
OK

Check purge flow.
PREPARATION:
(a)
Connect the LEXUS hand–held tester to the DLC3.
(b)
Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the LEXUS hand–held
tester.
(c)
Disconnect from the charcoal canister the vacuum hose
to the VSV for EVAP.
(d)
Start the engine.
CHECK:
When the VSV for EVAP is operated by the LEXUS hand–held
tester, check whether the disconnected hose applies suction 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.
NG
7
Check vacuum hose between intake manifold and VSV for EVAP, and VSV for
EVAP and charcoal canister.
CHECK:
(a)
Check that the vacuum hose is connected correctly.
(b)
Check the vacuum hose for looseness and disconnection.
(c)
Check the vacuum hose for cracks, hole, damage and blockage.
NG
Repair or replace.
OK
8
Check operation of VSV for EVAP (See page
NG
Replace VSV for EVAP.
OK
