P0455
EVAP gross leak
Leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in EVAP system and EVAP system pressure is measured. Reference pressure is measured at start and end of leak check.
If stabilized pressure is higher than [second reference pressure x 0.35], ECM determines that EVAP system has a large leak.

EVAP small leak
Leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in EVAP system and EVAP system pressure is measured. Reference pressure measured at start and end of leak check.
If stabilized pressure is higher than second reference pressure, ECM determines that EVAP system has a small leak.

DESCRIPTION

The description can be found in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) System (COROLLA_ZRE142 RM0000011IO03GX_07.html).

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

5 hours* after the ignition switch is turned off, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system. The ECM monitors for leaks and actuator malfunctions based on the EVAP pressure.
HINT:
*: If the engine coolant temperature is not below 35°C (95°F) 5 hours after the ignition switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2 hours later. If it is still not below 35°C (95°F) 7 hours after the ignition switch is turned off, the monitor check starts 2.5 hours later.

Sequence
Operation
Description
Duration
-
ECM activation
The key-off monitor is activated by soak timer 5, 7 or 9.5 hours after ignition switch turned off.
-
A
Atmospheric pressure measurement
Vent valve is turned OFF (vent) and the EVAP system pressure is measured by ECM in order to register atmospheric pressure.
If pressure in EVAP system is not between 70 kPa(abs) and 110 kPa(abs) [525 mmHg(abs) and 825 mmHg(abs)], the ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.
60 seconds
B
First reference pressure measurement
In order to determine reference pressure, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) through reference orifice and then ECM checks if the leak detection pump and vent valve operate normally.
60 seconds
C
EVAP system pressure measurement
Vent valve turned ON (closed) to shut the EVAP system.
Negative pressure (vacuum) created in the EVAP system, and EVAP system pressure then measured.
The measured value is memorized as it will be used in the leak check.
If the EVAP pressure does not stabilize within 15 minutes, the ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.
15 minutes*
D
Purge VSV monitor
Purge VSV is opened and then the EVAP system pressure is measured by the ECM.
A large increase indicates normality.
10 seconds
E
Second reference pressure measurement
After a second reference pressure measurement, the leak check is performed by comparing the first and second reference pressure.
If stabilized system pressure is higher than second the reference pressure, the ECM determines that the EVAP system is leaking.
60 seconds
-
Final check
Atmospheric pressure is measured and then the monitor result is recorded by the ECM.
-
*: If only a small amount of fuel is in the fuel tank, it takes longer for the EVAP pressure to stabilize.

  P0455  Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (Gross Leak)

  1. (a) P0455: EVAP gross leak
    In operation C, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than [second reference pressure x 0.35] (near atmospheric pressure), the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a large leak, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC (2 trip detection logic).

  2. (b) P0456: EVAP very small leak
    In operation C, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system and the EVAP system pressure is measured. If the stabilized system pressure is higher than the second reference pressure, the ECM determines that the EVAP system has a small leak, illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC (2 trip detection logic).

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

NOTICE:
  1. The Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) consists of 6 steps performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 minutes.
  2. Do not perform the Evaporative System Check when the fuel tank is higher than 90% full because the cut-off valve may be closed, making the fuel tank leak check unavailable.
  3. Do not run the engine during this operation.
  4. When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or higher, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the fuel temperature below 35°C (95°F).
  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.
  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.
  6. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.
  7. After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for All Readiness by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
  8. Input the DTC: P0455 or P0456.
  9. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display
    Description

    HINT:
    1. If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    2. If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
  10. If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE or N/A and no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs (COROLLA_ZRE142 RM000000PDK0ZBX.html).
    HINT:
    1. If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    2. If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.
