P0442-EVAP LEAK MONITOR MEDIUM (0.040) LEAK DETECTED —
Continued
TEST
2 To continue testing you will need Miller Tool #8404 Evaporative Emission Leak
Detector (EELD).
WARNING: Keep lit cigarettes, sparks, flames, and other ignition sources
away from the test area to prevent the ignition of explosive gases. Keep the
test area well ventilated.
NOTE: The fuel tank should have between 20% and 80% of fuel tank capacity
to properly test the Evap system.
Disconnect the vacuum supply hose at the Leak Detection Pump.
Connect and apply a continuous vacuum supply (i.e. 20 Hg) to the Leak Detection
Pump. A vacuum pump such as an A/C recovery unit works well.
Using the DRBIII , select Engine/System Tests and actuate the Leak Detect Pump
Test (Option 3/Hold PSI).
NOTE: The above energizes the LDP solenoid and allows the constant
vacuum source to apply vacuum to the LDP pump diaphragm. This lifts the
diaphragm up and seals the atmospheric canister vent valve at the bottom
of the Leak Detection Pump.
Connect the red power lead of Miller Tool #8404 to the battery positive terminal and
the black ground lead to battery negative terminal.
NOTE: See Charts and Graph support material EELD Calibration Setup for
an example.
Connect shop air to the #8404 EELD.
Set the smoke/air control switch to AIR.
Insert the tester's AIR supply tip (clear hose) into the appropriate calibration orifice
on the tester's control panel (based on DTC leak size).
Press the remote smoke/air start button.
Position the red flag on the air flow meter so it is aligned with the indicator ball.
When the calibration is complete, release the remote button. The EELD is now
calibrated the flow meter in liters per minute to the size leak indicated by the DTC
set in the PCM.
Install the service port adapter #8404-14 on the vehicle's service port.
Connect the Air supply hose from the EELD to the service port.
Press the remote button to activate AIR flow.
NOTE: Larger volume fuel tanks, and/or those with less fuel, may require 4
to 5 minutes to fill.
Compare the flow meter indicator ball reading to the red flag.
ABOVE the red flag indicates a leak present.
BELOW the red flag indicates a sealed system.
Is the indicator ball above the red flag?
Yes → Go To 3
