Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for using a crankcase vent tube pressure or flow sensor for diagnosing a location and nature of crankcase system integrity breach. Integrated CVT pressure readings are used to diagnose disconnection of the CVT on the air intake side and distinguish from disconnection on the crankcase side. Use of integrated pressure readings allows for a more reliable and quicker diagnosis even at lower engine airflows.
