EVAP System Leak Detection Pump Pressure Sensor Circuit High
Same as P24B8 with the signal voltage above the plausible range. The evaporative system captures fuel vapor from the tank and purges it into intake; leaks or stuck purge valves leak hydrocarbons and cause emissions failures.
Affected components
- Evap leak detection pump pressure sensor
Common causes
- High likelihood: Signal shorted to supply
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Low likelihood: Supply wire pinched against B+ source
Possible symptoms
- Check engine light on
- Possible smell of fuel near tank or engine bay
- Failed emissions inspection
- Loose-cap warning may appear
Diagnostic notes
- The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
- This code can affect emissions
