DTC P0450 - Evaporative (EVAP) Emission Control System Pressure Sensor Malfunction
NOTE:
If other DTCs are set with DTC P0450, Light Green circuit (sensor reference voltage) or Light Green/Black circuit (sensor ground) may be open.
- Check fuel tank pressure sensor operation. See appropriate SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article. If operation is as specified, go to next step. If operation is not as specified, repair as necessary. Retest system.
- Remove fuel filler cap. Turn ignition on. Using a voltmeter, measure voltage (backprobe) between ground and PCM harness connector "C", terminal No. 21. If reading is about 2.0-2.5 volts, go to next step. If reading is not as specified, check Light Green wire, Light Green/Yellow wire and Light Green/Black wire for an open or short. Repair as necessary. If wires are okay, replace PCM. Retest system.
- Check fuel tank pressure control valve operation. See appropriate SYSTEM/COMPONENT TESTS article. If operation is as specified, check for an intermittent problem. See TESTS W/O CODES article. If operation is not as specified, repair as necessary. Retest system.
