P2404: EVAP System Leak Detection Pump Sense Circuit Range/Performance — what it means, the affected system and what to check before replacing parts.
Meaning, symptoms, causes and checks
EVAP System Leak Detection Pump Sense Circuit Range/Performance. Basic catalogue definition; diagnostic details have not yet been reviewed.
Affected system: Powertrain
Symptoms
- The engine or emissions warning may appear with few other symptoms.
- The EVAP leak-monitoring sequence may not complete correctly.
Possible causes
- Incorrect leak-detection pump feedback from a faulty pump, blocked filter or a restricted vapor line.
- EVAP leaks, damaged sensor wiring or loose pump connections can also distort the monitored response.
What to check
- Read all EVAP faults, then inspect vapor hoses and the tank-cap seal for visible defects.
- Examine pump wiring and connectors, and check the pump inlet or filter for restrictions.
- Run the vehicle-specific EVAP test and compare the reported pump-sense feedback with the expected response before replacing parts.
