STEP 5. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 3 −

Catalytic Converter Monitor

P.13B-6

.

(2) Read the diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC P0431 set?

YES : Replace the left bank side catalytic converter. Then

go to Step 6.

NO : The inspection is complete.

STEP 6. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 3 −

Catalytic Converter Monitor

P.13B-6

.

(2) Read the diagnostic trouble code.
Q: Is DTC P0431 set?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 7.
NO : The inspection is complete.

STEP 7. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 3 −

Catalytic Converter Monitor

P.13B-6

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0431 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

DTC P0441: Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• PCM detects stuck open condition of evaporative

emission purge solenoid valve and stuck closed
condition of evaporative emission ventilation
solenoid valve by pressure change in fuel tank.

• Stuck open evaporative emission purge solenoid

valve is judged through monitoring leak of evapo-
rative emission system.

• Stuck closed evaporative emission ventilation

solenoid valve is judged after 20 seconds from
end of monitoring leak of evaporative emission
system, or of usual operation of evaporative
emission purge solenoid from ON to OFF.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Fuel tank pressure decreases largely during

purge-cut.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION

Continuous

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• ON duty cycle of the evaporative emission purge

solenoid is 0 percent.

• Engine is running.

• 20 seconds have elapsed since the duty cycle of

the evaporative emission purge solenoid has
turned to 0 percent.

Judgment Criteria

• The pressure in the fuel tank is −2 kPa (−0.59

in.Hg) or less for 0.1 second.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

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

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).

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) Read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P0451 set?

YES : Refer to DTC P0451 - Evaporative Emission Control

System Pressure Sensor Range/Performance

P.13B-733

.

NO : Go to Step 2.
