Detection Timing
Detection Logic
P2420
Vent valve stuck open (vent)
The following condition is met during key-off EVAP monitor
  1. EVAP pressure change when vent valve is closed (ON) is less than 0.3 kPa(gauge) (2.25 mmHg(gauge))
  1. Canister pump module (Reference orifice, leak detection pump, vent valve)
  2. Connector/wire harness (Canister pump module - ECM)
  3. Canister (filter inside canister clogged)
  4. ECM
Ignition switch off
2 trip
HINT:
The vent valve is built into the canister pump module.

DESCRIPTION

The description can be found in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) System (COROLLA_ZRE142 RM0000011IO03FX_07.html).

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

5 hours* after the ignition switch is turned off, the leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) 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
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 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)], ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.
60 seconds
B
First reference pressure measurement
In order to determine reference pressure, leak detection pump creates negative pressure (vacuum) through reference orifice and then ECM checks if leak detection pump and vent valve operate normally.
60 seconds
C
EVAP system pressure measurement
Vent valve is turned on (closed) to shut EVAP system.
Negative pressure (vacuum) is created in EVAP system, and EVAP system pressure is then measured.
Write down measured value as it will be used in leak check
If EVAP pressure does not stabilize within 15 minutes, ECM cancels EVAP system monitor.
15 minutes*
D
Purge VSV monitor
Purge VSV is opened and then EVAP system pressure is measured by ECM.
Large increase indicates normal.
10 seconds
E
Second reference pressure measurement
After second reference pressure measurement, leak check is performed by comparing first and second reference pressure measurements.
If stabilized system pressure is higher than second reference pressure, ECM determines that EVAP system is leaking.
60 seconds
-
Final check
Atmospheric pressure is measured and then monitoring result is recorded by ECM.
-
*: If only a small amount of fuel is in the fuel tank, it takes longer for the EVAP pressure to stabilize.

P2420: Vent valve stuck open (vent)
In operation C, the vent valve turns on (closed) and the EVAP system pressure is then measured by the ECM using the canister pressure sensor to conduct an EVAP leak check. If the pressure does not increase when the vent valve is open, the ECM interprets this as the vent valve being stuck open. The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.

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 more 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 operation) (COROLLA_ZRE142 RM000000PDK0ZAX.html).
  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 "Evaporative System Check" is completed, check All Readiness by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
  8. Input the DTC: P2420.
  9. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Techstream Display
    Description
    NORMAL
    1. DTC judgment completed
    2. System normal
    ABNORMAL
    1. DTC judgment completed
    2. System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE
    1. DTC judgment not completed
    2. Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
    N/A
    1. Unable to perform DTC judgment
    2. Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU memory limit
    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 RM000000PDK0ZAX.html).
    HINT:
    1. If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    2. If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.
