P0450
2AZ-FXE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0450-P0453: Evaporative Emission Control System Pressure Sensor / Switch
DTC SUMMARY
HINT
The pressure sensor is built into the canister pump module.
DESCRIPTION
Refer to the EVAP System Component Tests and General Diagnostics.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
* DTC P0450: Pressure sensor abnormal voltage fluctuation
* If the pressure sensor output voltage rapidly fluctuates between less than 0.45 V and more than 4.9 V, the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) system monitor. The ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1-trip detection logic).
* DTC P0451: Pressure sensor abnormal voltage fluctuation or being constant
* If the pressure sensor output voltage fluctuates rapidly for 10 seconds, the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM interprets this as the pressure sensor voltage fluctuating, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
* Alternatively, if the sensor output voltage does not change for 10 seconds, the ECM interprets this as the sensor voltage being constant, and stops the monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC.
* (Both the malfunctions are detected by 2-trip detection logic).
* DTC P0452: Pressure sensor voltage low
* If the pressure sensor output voltage is below 0.45 V, the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1-trip detection logic).
* DTC P0453: Pressure sensor voltage high
* If the pressure sensor voltage output is 4.9 V or more, the ECM (included in the hybrid vehicle control ECU) interprets this as an open or short circuit malfunction in the pressure sensor or its circuit, and stops the EVAP system monitor. The ECM then illuminates the MIL and sets the DTC (1-trip detection logic).

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
NOTICE:
- When a vehicle is brought into the workshop, leave it as it is. Do not change the vehicle condition. For example, do not tighten the fuel tank cap.
- Do not disassemble the canister pump module.
- The Techstream is required to conduct the following diagnostic troubleshooting procedure.
PROCEDURE
1. CONFIRM DTC AND EVAP PRESSURE
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Turn the tester on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Code.
(e) Read the DTCs.
(f) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / EVAP / Vapor Pressure Pump.
(g) Read the EVAP (Evaporative Emission) pressure displayed on the tester.
Result:
C -- GO TO EVAP INSPECTION PROCEDURE
B -- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CANISTER PUMP MODULE - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU)
A -- Continue to next step.
2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CANISTER PUMP MODULE - HV CONTROL ECU)
(a) Turn the power switch off.
(b) Disconnect the A61 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
(c) Measure the resistance between the PPMP terminal of the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector and body ground.
Result:
(d) Reconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
B -- REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU
A -- Continue to next step.
3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CANISTER PUMP MODULE - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU)
(a) Disconnect the N17 canister pump module connector.
(b) Disconnect the A61 hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
(c) Measure the resistance between the PPMP terminal of the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector and body ground.
Result:
(d) Reconnect the canister pump module connector.
(e) Reconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
B -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A -- REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CANISTER PUMP MODULE - HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU)
(a) Disconnect the N17 canister pump module connector.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).
(c) Measure the voltage and resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard:
Result:
(d) Reconnect the canister pump module connector.
B -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
A -- REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
5. REPLACE CHARCOAL CANISTER
NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (AFTER REPAIR)
6. REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
HINT
If the exhaust tail pipe has been removed, go to the next step before reinstalling it.
NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (AFTER REPAIR)
7. REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU
(a) Replace the hybrid vehicle control ECU Removal.
NEXT -- CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (AFTER REPAIR)
8. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (AFTER REPAIR)
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the tester on.
(c) Wait for at least 60 seconds.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Code / Pending.
HINT
If no pending DTC is displayed on the tester, the repair has been successfully completed.
