Common causes

  • Fuel cap seal defective EVAP system leak (canister damage, pipework damage) EVAP Canister purge valve to ECM drive circuit: open circuit, short circuit, high resistance EVAP Canister purge valve power supply circuit: open circuit, short circuit EVAP Canister purge valve to engine purge pipe: restricted, leaking, disconnected EVAP Canister purge valve operating vacuum hose leak / restriction EVAP Canister purge valve failure Fuel tank leak
  • Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (small leak)

Quick checks

  • Confirm freeze-frame and conditions when the code set
  • Inspect connectors, grounds, and harness for the circuit named in the code
  • Compare live sensor values vs expected (unplugged/biased sensors are common)
  • Check intake boots, PCV, and vacuum lines for splits (very common on aged X-Types)

Typical fixes
