MONITOR DESCRIPTION
Pressure Sensor Specification: (a) DTC P0450: Pressure sensor voltage abnormal fluctua-
tion.
Malfunction Area
Output Voltage If the pressure sensor voltage output rapidly fluctuates
between less than 0.45 V and more than 4.9 V, the ECM
4.900 V
interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in
4.150 V the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP
(Evaporative Emission) system monitor. The ECM then il-

luminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1 trip detection log-
1.425 V
ic).
Malfunction Area
(b) DTC P0451: Pressure sensor noising or stuck
0.450 V
If the pressure sensor voltage output fluctuates rapidly for
60 110 Pressure
kPa kPa 10 seconds, the ECM stops the EVAP system monitor.
HINT: The ECM interprets this as noise from the pressure sen-
Standard atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa
B17403 sor, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then
illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
Alternatively, if the sensor voltage output does not
change for 10 seconds, the ECM interprets this as the
sensor being stuck, and stops the monitor. The ECM then
illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
(Both the malfunctions are detected by 2 trip detection
logic)
(c) DTC P0452: Pressure sensor voltage low
If the pressure sensor voltage output is below 0.45 V, the
ECM interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction
in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP
system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and
sets the DTC (1 trip detection logic).
(d) DTC P0453: Pressure sensor voltage high
If the pressure sensor voltage output is 4.9 V or more, the
ECM interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction
in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP
system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and
sets the DTC (1 trip detection logic).
