MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-533

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal
No. 1).

• The PCM controls the evaporative emission ven-

tilation solenoid ground by turning the power tran-
sistor in the PCM ON and OFF.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• To judge if there is open circuit in the evaporative

emission ventilation solenoid drive circuit, PCM
measures the surge voltage of the evaporative
emission ventilation solenoid coil.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Off-surge does not occur after solenoid is operated

on to off.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION
Once per driving cycle

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is at between 10 and

16.5 volts.

Judgment Criteria

• The evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

coil surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2
volts) is not detected for 0.2 second.

• The PCM monitors for this condition once during

the drive cycle.

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is at between 10 and

16.5 volts.

• ON duty cycle of the evaporative emission purge

solenoid is 0 percent.

• ON duty cycle the EGR vacuum regulator sole-

noid valve is 0 percent.

• Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid is ON.

• More than 1 second has elapsed after the above

mentioned conditions have been met.

Judgment Criteria

• The evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

coil surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2
volts) is not detected for 1 second. When the
evaporative emission ventilation solenoid is
turned OFF.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test
item 29: Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator test mode for item

29, Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration

should be felt when the evaporative emission ventilation
solenoid is operated.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

P.00-7

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2 Check connector E-63 at the evaporative emission
ventilation solenoid for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 3 Check the evaporative emission ventilation
solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

connector E-63.

(2) Measure the resistance between evaporative emission

ventilation solenoid side connector terminal No. 1 and No.
2.

Standard value: 17

− 21ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the resistance between 17 and 21 ohms [at 20

°C

(68

°F)] ?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the over vent valve module. Then go to Step

12.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at evaporative
emission ventilation solenoid harness side connector
E-63.
(1) Disconnect the connector E-63 and measure at the harness

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 1 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.
