P0459
The ECM detects the EVAP canister purge solenoid control circuit is shorted to voltage. The condition exists for 4 seconds or a cumulative of 30
seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
DTC P0443, P0458 and P0459 are Type B DTCs.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P0443, P0458 and P0459 are Type B DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
If the condition is intermittent, move the related harnesses and connectors, with the engine operating, while monitoring the scan tool Circuit Test
Status parameter for the component. The Circuit Test Status parameter changes from OK or Not Run to Fault if there is a condition with the circuit
or a connection.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Ignition ON, command the EVAP purge solenoid to 50 percent with a scan tool. You should hear an audible click.
2. Engine operating, observe the scan tool EVAP Purge Solenoid Circuit Test Status parameters. Verify the parameters display OK or Not Run.
3. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the
conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the Q12 EVAP purge solenoid.
2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.
瀚慖f the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests
normal and the ignition voltage circuit fuse is open, test all components connected to the ignition voltage circuit and replace as necessary.
3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 2 and the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1.
Note: The control circuit for the EVAP purge solenoid is pulled-up to voltage within the ECM, 2.6-4.6 V on the control circuit is normal.
