NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (AUTOMATIC MODE)

NOTICE:
* In the Evaporative System Check (Automatic Mode) a series of 5 steps is performed automatically by the Techstream. It takes a maximum of approximately 18 minutes.
* 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 leak check of the fuel tank unavailable.
* Do not run the engine during this operation.
* When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Automatic Mode.

(d) After the Evaporative System Check is completed, check for pending DTCs. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes / Pending.

HINT
If no pending DTC is displayed, perform the Monitor Confirmation after this repair is completed. After this confirmation, check for pending DTCs. If no DTC is displayed, the EVAP system is normal.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.

3. PERFORM EVAP SYSTEM CHECK (MANUAL MODE)





NOTICE:
* In the Evaporative System Check (Manual Mode), the series of 5 Evaporative System Check steps are performed manually using the Techstream.
* 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 leak check of the fuel tank unavailable.
* Do not run the engine during this operation.
* When the temperature of the fuel is 35°C (95°F) or more, a large amount of vapor forms and any check results become inaccurate. When performing the Evaporative System Check, keep the temperature below 35°C (95°F).

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / Evaporative System Check / Manual Mode.

(a) Wait until the EVAP pressure change is less than 0.1 kPa-g (0.75 mmHg-g) for 30 seconds.

(b) Measure the EVAP pressure and record it.

HINT
A few minutes are required for the EVAP pressure to become saturated. When there is little fuel in the fuel tank, it takes up to 15 minutes.

NEXT -- Continue to next step.
