1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the solenoid valve.
  1. Disconnect the harness connector.
  1. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the solenoid valve (refer to the illustration at left).
  1. Check airtightness by applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the battery to the purge control solenoid valve and without applying voltage.
  2. Battery voltage
    Normal condition
    Applied
    Vacuum leaks
    Not applied
    Vacuum maintained

  1. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the solenoid valve.
  2. Standard value:
    • 30 - 34 Ω (at 20°C) <4G63, 4G69 Except for Brazil and Chile>
    • 22 - 26 Ω (at 20°C) <4G69, Vehicles for Brazil and Chile>
