What is a P2422 code?

What is a P2422 code?

OBD-II Code P2422 is defined as a Evaporative Emission System Vent Valve Stuck Closed. The evaporative control (EVAP) system captures any fuel vapors from the fuel tank and sends them through the vehicle’s intake to be burned in the normal combustion process.

How do I know if my purge valve is stuck closed?

If the vapor canister purge valve is stuck closed instead of open, the valve won’t push any fuel vapors back into the engine. Instead, they’ll run straight out of the exhaust, which will cause much higher emission levels. Of course, you probably won’t notice this unless you take your vehicle in for an emission test.

What happens if your purge valve is stuck closed?

In the event of a canister purge valve stuck in the closed position, the engine will not be able to burn the evaporated fuel. This will cause a low purge flow code and can cause premature failure of the charcoal canister.

The fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor output indicates about atmospheric pressure 0 kPa (0 in.Hg, 0 mmHg) before purge starts since the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister vent shut valve is normally open (open to the atmosphere). The sensor indicates a negative pressure value (vacuum) during purging.
