Circuit | Short to Ground | High Resistance | Open | Short to Voltage |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ignition 1 Voltage - Purge Supply | P0443 | P0443 | P0443 | -- |
EVAP Purge Solenoid Control | P0443 | P0443 | P0443 | P0443 |
An ignition voltage is supplied directly to the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister purge solenoid valve. The EVAP canister purge solenoid valve is pulse width modulated (PWM). The scan tool displays the amount of ON time as a percentage. The control module monitors the status of the driver. The engine control module (ECM) controls the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve ON time by grounding the control circuit via an internal switch called a driver. If the ECM detects an incorrect voltage for the commanded state of the driver this DTC sets.
• | Ignition ON. |
• | The system voltage is between 9-18V. |
• | DTC P0443 runs continuously when the above conditions are met. |
The ECM detects that the commanded state of the driver and the actual state of the control circuit do not match for a minimum of 6 seconds.
DTC P0443 is a Type B DTC.
DTC P0443 is a Type B DTC.
Ignition ON , engine OFF, you should hear a clicking sound when the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve is commanded to 50 percent with a scan tool. The clicking sound should stop when the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve is commanded to 0 percent. The rate at which the valve cycles should increase when the command state is increased and decrease when the command state is decreased.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the voltage supply circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the voltage supply circuit fuse is open, test or replace the Q12 EVAP canister purge solenoid. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 ECM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
