The step-by-step diagnosis and repair of EVAP
system issues on a 1999 Toyota Camry LE model
is now covered in a free troubleshooting video
available from
Wells Vehicle Electronics™. The
new video can be accessed via the “Wells Tech”
link at
www.wellsVE.com as well as
through
YouTube.com.
The company’s Technical Services team produced
the video using a Camry LE model that had
failed an emissions test as a result of a
PO446 code, which indicates that a leak was
detected while activating the vacuum switch
valve (VSV) during an EVAP monitor test. In
many cases, industry repair resources
recommend automatic replacement of the EVAP
canister when a PO441 or PO446 code is
encountered. To avoid this expensive purchase
when possible, the Wells team demonstrates how
to remove and bench test the canister and
VSV.
This video is one of nearly two dozen
comprehensive free on-car diagnostic programs
available through the www.wellsVE.com
website and YouTube.
These videos cover a broad range of automotive
driveability issues commonly encountered on
today’s domestic and foreign nameplate
applications.
The Technical Services
team also offers vehicle systems training
videos for automotive parts professionals,
service writers and technicians, as well as a
free quarterly diagnostic newsletter,
CounterPoint. These tools also are available
at no charge via the “Wells Tech” link at www.wellsVE.com.
