1-2 Test Voltage Supply of Component B4/3 (Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor).

Test requirement
- The actual value is not o.k.
- The voltage supply of the component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module) is o.k..

Test sequence
- Switch off ignition.
- Connect socket box (35-pin) to component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module).
- Connect socket box (126-pin) to component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module).
- (5.5) Pin 5 of 35 <--> Pin 125 of 126 (4.40)
- Switch on ignition.

Specified value
- Voltage[4.75...5.25] V

Question
- Is the measured value okay?
Yes
The measured value is o.k.
Further possible causes of fault
- Inspect cables from component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module) to component B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor).
- B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor)
No
The measured value is not o.k.
Possible cause and remedy
- Inspect cables from component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module) to component B4/3 (Fuel tank pressure sensor).
- N3/10 (ME-SFI control module)

2 Check Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).

Test 2-1 Actuate Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).
Test 2-2 Test Current Consumption of Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).
Test 2-3 Perform Mechanical Inspection of Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).
Test 2-4 Test Signal Voltage of Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).


2-1 Actuate Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).

Test sequence
- Switch on ignition.
- Actuate component Y58/1 (Purge control valve).(Operate pushbutton F2.)

Note: Component M4/3 (engine/AC electric suction fan) runs with an on/off ratio of 50 % during the actuations for safety reasons.

Note! Communication with ECU required.


2-2 Test Current Consumption of Component Y58/1 (Purge Control Valve).

Test requirement
- Actuation is not okay.

Test sequence
- Switch off ignition.
Connect socket box.
- (5.7) 7 <--> 2 (5.2)
- Switch on ignition.

Specified value
- Amperage[0.4...0.6] A

Question
- Is the measured value okay?
Yes
The measured value is o.k.
Further possible causes of fault
- Perform mechanical inspection of component Y58/1 (Purge control valve).
No
The measured value is not o.k.
Possible cause and remedy
- Voltage supply of component Y58/1 (Purge control valve)(Wiring diagrams)
- Inspect cables from component N3/10 (ME-SFI control module) to component Y58/1 (Purge control valve).
- Y58/1 (Purge control valve)

** End of Test **
