SOURCE: Emmission codes, Mass air flow sensor

The P0101 code is indeed a code indicating an issue with the MAF sensor. It could be something as simple as cleaning the sensor, or it could be faulty and in need of replacement.

Now, the P1870 code refers to the transmission, and a condition in which the PCM is detecting excessive slipping. That is to say it perceives the transmission slipping as it compares engine speed (RPM) and vehicle speed (MPH) and should a ratio be exceeded then the PCM will set code P1870. I would expect that you would notice a bit harsher shifting in response to this code, particularly on the 1-2 shift as the PCM will command higher fluid pressure to combat the slipping.

Now, it is possible that the an issue with the MAF would cause signals to the PCM to change significantly and to such an extent that the PCM would think something is off with the transmission, so I would start there, with the MAF sensor and see if that helps as it appears you were already thinking.

SOURCE: 2008 suburban i have code

sad to say that you miss on what you did, dtc P0449 was related to vent solenoid contol circuit, purge problem indicates P0443,, check the vent valve connectors supply voltage from the power distribution box, (fuse # 14-tcm/batt) and the other wire(almost white) to ecm C1 #61.

SOURCE: P0300 Trouble Code

Those 2 codes together usually mean there is a vaccum leak(the intake is getting air that is not metered through the mass airflow sensor).Look for PCV and vaccum lines loose(you might have got it by repositioning the air cleaner)

I have a 2004 Ford focus with a couple code s and was wondering the easiest way to fix po411 , po455 ,po480 ,po 660

P0411 - Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system upstream flow The secondary air injection system does not detect the presence of air in the exhaust when introduced by the secondary air injection system.
  • AIR bypass solenoid circuit open.
  • AIR bypass solenoid leaking/blocked or stuck open/closed.
  • Electric AIR pump - no/low air flow.
  • AIR diverter valve leaking/blocked or stuck open/closed.
  • AIR air hoses restricted or leaking.
  • AIR vacuum hoses restricted or leaking.
In order to test the AIR pump, it must be capable of driving the HO2S lean.
A single electrical circuit open, such as an AIR bypass solenoid, in this multi-component circuit will not be detected by a PCM output driver circuit, yet it will create DTC P0411.
P0455 - EVAP Control System Leak Detected (No Purge Flow or Large Leak) The PCM monitors the complete EVAP control system for no purge flow, the presence of a large fuel vapor leak, or multiple small fuel vapor leaks. System failure occurs when no purge flow (attributed to fuel vapor blockages or restrictions), a large fuel vapor leak, or multiple fuel vapor leaks are detected by the EVAP Running Loss monitor test with the engine running (but not at idle).
  • After-market EVAP hardware (such as fuel filler cap) non-conforming to required specifications.
  • Disconnected or cracked fuel EVAP canister tube, EVAP canister purge outlet tube, or EVAP return tube.
  • EVAP canister purge valve stuck closed.
  • Damaged EVAP canister.
  • Damaged or missing fuel filler cap.
  • Insufficient fuel filler cap installation.
  • Loose fuel vapor hose/tube connections to the EVAP system components.
  • Blockages or restrictions in the fuel vapor hoses/tubes (items also listed under disconnections or cracks).
  • Fuel vapor control valve tube assembly or fuel vapor vent valve assembly blocked.
  • Canister vent (CV) solenoid stuck open.
  • Mechanically inoperative fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor.
Check for audible vacuum noise or significant fuel odor in the engine compartment or near the EVAP canister and fuel tank.
P0480 - Cooling Fan Electrical Malfunction
Variable Speed Electric Cooling Fan This test checks the Fan Control - Variable (FCV) output circuit. The DTC sets if the PCM detects the voltage on the FCV circuit is not within the expected range.
  • FCV circuit open or shorted.
  • B+ or ground circuit fault to cooling fan.
  • VPWR open to cooling fan (if applicable).
  • Damaged cooling fan module.
  • PCM damaged.
During the KOEO self-test, the cooling fan is cycled on and off.
P0660 - Intake Manifold Tuning Valve (IMTV) Control Circuit Open - Bank 1 The IMTV system is monitored for failure during continuous, KOEO, or KOER self-tests. The test fails when the signal on the monitor pin is more or less than an expected calibrated range.
  • IMTV signal circuit open, shorted to PWR GND or SIG RTN.
  • Damaged IMTV actuator.
  • Damaged PCM.
An IMTVM PID reading may indicate a fault if available.

code p0441 refers to evaporative emission EVAP system-incorrect flow detected===causes hose connections--intake leak---EVAP canister purge valve
Po144 refers to the same fault and causes
Po446 refers to EVAP system--vent control-circuit malfunction===causes --wiring---EVAP canister purge valve---ECM In all cases codes the canister purge valve gets a mention and then the ECM. I would take it back and ask that the canister purge valve be changed or even ask for a new canister as there are occasions when filling the tank to the filler hole will induce fuel into the canister causing it to malfunction.

Ford escort wagon 1997 code p1443 displayed. what does this indicate & where is the cannister? thank you.

P1443 - EVAP Control System / Vacuum System Purge Control Solenoid Or Purge Control Valve Fault. A fuel tank pressure change greater than minus (-) 7 inches of water in 30 seconds occurred with a purge (fuel vapor) flow at less than 0.02 pounds per minute.

Possible Causes:
  • Blocked fuel vapor hose between the EVAP canister purge valve and the FTP sensor.
  • Blocked fuel vapor hose between the EVAP canister purge valve and the engine intake manifold.
  • Blocked vacuum hose between the EVAP canister purge valve solenoid and the engine intake manifold.
  • EVAP canister purge valve stuck closed (mechanically).

  • Possible Solution:
    Check for blockages between the fuel tank, the EVAP canister purge valve, and the engine intake manifold. Check for obstructions in the EVAP canister purge valve diaphragm and ports.

    The canister is on the passengers side near the firewall if I recall correctly.

    Code says evaporator purge solenoid

    Which code specifically? Do not assume you need a new solenoid. Our recommendation will depend on the specific code and some troubleshooting results. I usually recommend checking over all the EVAP vacuum lines and the gas cap too whenever there is a purge valve code. Check the vacuum lines at the cannister in the left rear bumper. I will paste info on the purge solenoid below.

    Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid

    Description & Operation
    The duty cycle EVAP canister purge solenoid (DCP) regulates the rate of vapor flow from the EVAP canister to the intake manifold. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) operates the solenoid.
    During the cold start warm-up period and the hot start time delay, the PCM does not energize the solenoid. When de-energized, no vapors are purged. The PCM de-energizes the solenoid during open loop operation.
    The engine enters closed loop operation after it reaches a specified temperature and the time delay ends. During closed loop operation, the PCM cycles (energizes and de-energizes) the solenoid 5 or 10 times per second, depending upon operating conditions. The PCM varies the vapor flow rate by changing solenoid pulse width. Pulse width is the amount of time that the solenoid is energized. The PCM adjusts solenoid pulse width based on engine operating condition.
    Removal & Installation
    The duty cycle evaporative (EVAP) canister purge solenoid is located in the engine compartment near the brake master cylinder.

    1. Disconnect electrical connector at solenoid.
    2. Disconnect vacuum lines at solenoid.
    3. Lift solenoid slot from mounting bracket for Removal & Installation.

    To Install:
    1. Position solenoid slot to mounting bracket.
    2. Connect vacuum lines to solenoid. Be sure vacuum lines are firmly connected and not leaking or damaged. If leaking, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may be set with certain emission packages.
    3. Connect electrical connector to solenoid.

    Obd-2 code p1455

    DTC P1455 - Substantial Leak or Blockage in Evaporative Emission Control System

    The PCM monitors the complete EVAP control system for no purge flow, the presence of a large fuel vapor leak or multiple small fuel vapor leaks. The system failure occurs when no purge flow (attributed to fuel vapor blockages or restrictions), a large fuel vapor leak or multiple fuel vapor leaks are detected by the EVAP running loss monitor test with the engine running (but not at idle).

    Check this possible causes:
    After-market EVAP hardware (such as fuel filler cap) non-conforming to required specifications
    Disconnected or cracked fuel EVAP canister tube, EVAP canister purge outlet tube or EVAP return tube
    EVAP canister purge valve stuck closed
    Damaged EVAP canister
    Damaged or missing fuel filler cap
    Insufficient fuel filler cap installation
    Loose fuel vapor hose/tube connections to EVAP system components
    Blockages or restrictions in fuel vapor hoses/tubes (items also listed under disconnections or cracks)
    Fuel vapor control valve tube assembly or fuel vapor vent valve assembly blocked
    Canister vent (CV) solenoid stuck open
    Mechanically inoperative fuel tank pressure (FTP) sensor

    it is more likely that the problem is in the EVAP system
    code p 0455 refers to evaporative emission(EVAP)system---large leak detected ====causes --hose connections ---intake leak---EVAP cannister---EVAP canister purge valve
    I would suggest to you to tell the mechanic to replace the EVAP purge valve as the problem is more likely to be that than the fuel tank
