DTC Description  
OBD Status  
P1454 FTP SENSOR CIRCUIT RANGE/PERFORMANCE PROBLEM  
Does the HDS indicate PASSED, FAILED, or NOT COMPLETED?  
PASSED : Troubleshooting is complete. If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs were indicated, go to the  
indicated DTC's troubleshooting.  
FAILED : Go to step 1 and recheck.  
NOT COMPLETED : Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm with the EVAP PC DUTY at 20% or more until a  
result comes on.

FUEL LEVEL  
Is the FUEL LEVEL less than it is on the on-board snapshot?  
YES : Go to step 2.  
NO : Drain the fuel until the FUEL LEVEL is less than it is on the on-board snapshot, then go to step 2.  
2. Determine possible failure area (FTP sensor, others):  
ο‚‘
ο‚‘
1. Take a snapshot with the HDS for 3 minutes without starting the engine.  
2. Check the recorded snapshot parameter with the HDS:  

MAX Value of FTP SENSOR (FINE)  
MIN Value of FTP SENSOR (FINE)  


Is the difference between the MAX and MIN values of the FTP SENSOR (FINE) about 0.67 kPa (0.2  
inHg, 5 mmHg) or less?  
YES : Go to step 3.  
NO : Go to step 5.  
3. FTP sensor performance check 1:  
ο‚‘
1. Check the FTP SENSOR (FINE) in the recorded snapshot with the HDS.  
Does it vary 0.067 kPa (0.2 inHg, 5 mmHg) or more for 3 seconds?  
YES : Go to step 4.  
NO : Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at  
the FTP sensor, the EVAP canister vent shut valve, and the PCM. Also check for a blockage in the EVAP  
vent hose.  
4. FTP sensor performance check 2:

Is there any blockage or damage?  
YES : Remove the blockage, and REPLACE THE FTP SENSOR if needed, then do the repair  
verification .  
NO : REPLACE THE FTP SENSOR , then do the repair verification .  
8. EVAP canister vent shut valve check:  
ο‚‘
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).  
ο‚‘
2. Disconnect the fresh air hose (A) from the EVAP canister (B), then connect a vacuum  
pump/gauge, 0-30 inHg, to the EVAP vent shut valve as shown.
