Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the EVAP purge solenoid.
    NOTE: The ignition circuit supplies voltage to other components. Make sure you test all circuits for a short to ground or test all components for being shorted that share the ignition circuit.
  2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition voltage circuit fuse is open, test all components connected to the ignition voltage circuit and replace as necessary.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 2 and the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1.
    NOTE: The control circuit for the EVAP purge solenoid is pulled-up to voltage within the ECM, 2.6-4.6 volts on the control circuit is normal.
  4. Command the EVAP purge solenoid to 50% and then to 0% with a scan tool. The test lamp should illuminate or flash and then go OFF.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the 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 ECM.
  5. Test for 2.6-4.6 volts between the control circuit terminal 2 and the ECM housing.
    • If the voltage is not within the specified range, replace the ECM.
  6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the EVAP purge solenoid.
