Read the instructions below then start the fault diagnostic procedure.

Symptom: Fault indicator lamp (for further information see WIS Fault diagnosis, general)

  P1492 00


EVAP System, Fuel Level Sensor Failure and Tank Pressure Sensor Value too Low

Fault symptom

Fault indicator lamp (for further information see WIS Fault diagnosis, general)

On-board diagnosis

Type of diagnosis:

Once per driving cycle. Stopped when fault criteria are fulfilled or OK reported.

Enable criteria:

Ignition ON.
Crankshaft stationary.
Vehicle speed 0 km/h.
Intake air temperature higher than 0°C.
Atmospheric pressure between 75 and 106 kPa.
Tank level lower than 50 litres.
Current tank pressure sensor value is adapted.

Fault criteria:

Adapted value is more than 750 Pa lower than atmospheric pressure.
A fuel level sensor fault has been detected at the same time, which makes the EVAP diagnosis unreliable.

Dependent:

None

System reaction to a fault:

None

OK report:

Diagnostics carried out without fault reported.

Fault handling:

Type III
(See section Fault handling III, "Other emission-related components and functions" for more information.)

Checking the wiring harness

Move the wiring harness at several spots and in several directions to reveal intermittent breaks and short-circuits. Check switches, connectors and crimp connections for oxidation, retracted pins and pin clamping force.

Diagnostic help

Diagnosis regards:

Faulty fuel level sensor and tank pressure sensor.
Resistance in cable and connectors to tank pressure sensor and fuel level sensor.
Fault in connector H42-2 is often a cause of this DTC.

Functions in the diagnostic tool related to the fault:

Test value:
Tank Pressure

Pressure must be around 0 pa with ignition on.
