Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring. Manual — part 267

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

DTC P0442, P0456 (MZI-3.7) DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

DETECTION

CONDITION

EVAP vapor management valve solenoid system when there is less than 0.625
kPa (PID FTP_H2O displays "2.5") bleed-up over 15 s at 75% fuel fill. Bleed-up
and evaluation time vary as a function of fuel fill level. The vapor generation
limit is more than 0.625 kPa (PID FTP_H2O displays "2.5") over 120 s.



P0456 indicates that a fuel vapor leak from an opening as small as 0.508 mm
{0.020 in} has been detected by the EVAP running loss monitor test.

POSSIBLE

CAUSE



After-market EVAP hardware (such as fuel-filler cap) nonconforming to
required specifications.



Small holes or cuts in fuel vapor hoses/tubes (P0442, P0456).



CV solenoid stays partially open on closed command.



Damaged, cross-threaded or loosely installed fuel-filler cap.



EVAP system component seals leaking.



Re-tighten the fuel-filler cap then carry out
the EVAP system leak inspection using the
M-MDS again. (See ENGINE CONTROL
SYSTEM OPERATION INSPECTION
[MZI-3.7] .)



Is small or large leakage detected?

Yes Go to the next step.

No

Go to Step 14.

6

VISUALLY INSPECT COMPONENTS FOR
SMALL LEAKS



Verify that the CV solenoid valve is
properly seated on the charcoal canister.



Visually inspect for cut or loose connections
to the fuel vapor hoses/tubes in the
following locations:



Charcoal canister to CV solenoid
valve.



Charcoal canister to evaporative
emission valve component.



Evaporative emission valve
component to the fuel tank (if
applicable).



Check for fuel-filler pipe damage.



Is a concern with a hose, tube, connection,
or valve visually evident?

Yes

Repair or install a new component if
necessary. Go to Step 13.

No

Go to the next step.

7

INSPECT FOR SMALL LEAKS AT FUEL-
FILLER CAP



Turn the ignition switch to the ON position
(Engine off)



Close CV solenoid valve using the
EVAPCV PID.



Using the EVAP system tester, check for
leaks around the fuel-filler cap.



Is a leak detected?

Yes Go to the next step.

No

Go to Step 9.

8

VISUALLY INSPECT FUEL-FILLER CAP
AND FUEL-FILLER PIPE



Visually inspect the fuel-filler cap and fuel-
filler pipe for damage.



Is the fuel-filler cap or fuel-filler pipe
damaged?

Yes

Replace the malfunctioning parts, then go
to Step 13.

No

Go to the next step.



Turn the ignition switch to the ON position
(Engine off)



Close CV solenoid valve using the
EVAPCV PID from the output test mode.



Pressurize EVAP system to 3.48 kPa (PID
FTP_H2O displays "14").



Does the pressure hold between 3.43 and
3.53 kPa (PID FTP_H2O displays "13.80"
and "14.20")?

Yes Go to Step 13.

No

Go to Step 10.

10

INSPECT FOR LEAKS IN COMPLETE
EVAP SYSTEM



Verify CV solenoid valve is closed.



Verify system is pressurized to 3.48 kPa
(PID FTP_H2O displays "14").



Using the ultrasonic leak detector, check the
following EVAP system locations:



EVAP return tube to CV solenoid
valve.



CV solenoid valve to charcoal
canister-CV solenoid valve
component.



Charcoal canister-CV solenoid valve
component to fuel tank.



fuel-filler cap and fuel-filler pipe.



Is a leak detected?

Yes

Repair or replace the component if
necessary. Go to Step 13.

No

Discontinue pressurizing the system. Go to

the next step.

11

INSPECT FOR SMALL LEAK FROM EVAP
RETURN TUBE TO CHARCOAL CANISTER
