What is the function of the carbon canister purge pump
1 Answers
The main function of the carbon canister purge pump is to blow fuel vapor from the carbon canister into the intake pipe and control the concentration of the combustible mixture. The following are the causes that may lead to purge pump failure: 1. Carbon canister failure: The maintenance technician lifts the vehicle with a lift, removes the carbon canister, and uses an air gun to blow into the carbon canister to analyze and determine whether there is any blockage, thereby confirming the fault. If the carbon canister fails, it cannot absorb the vapor from the fuel tank, causing the carbon canister purge pump to malfunction. 2. Carbon canister purge pump circuit failure: The maintenance technician opens the engine hood and observes whether the circuit of the carbon canister purge pump is damaged or broken, thereby confirming the fault. If the circuit of the carbon canister purge pump fails, it cannot supply power to the carbon canister purge pump, causing the pump to malfunction. 3. Carbon canister purge pump failure: The maintenance technician uses a vehicle diagnostic computer to read the data stream of the carbon canister purge pump and analyze whether its working state is normal. If abnormal, the technician can use a multimeter to measure the resistance value of the carbon canister purge pump. If the resistance value is not within the normal range, the fault can be confirmed.
