The hydrocarbon trap's substrate degraded, so it no longer stores the unburnt fuel produced before the catalyst lights off. It exists to cover the first seconds of a cold start, when the catalyst is too cold to convert anything and most of a journey's hydrocarbon emissions are produced — the trap holds them and releases them once the catalyst is hot.

Its degradation is thermal and permanent, so a trap that has been through repeated over-temperature events ages faster than its mileage suggests. The fault produces no driveability symptom at all, which is why it is found at a test or by the monitor rather than by anybody noticing.

Rule out the cause of any over-temperature before replacing it, since the same misfire or rich condition that sintered the substrate will sinter the replacement. Check that the monitor's preconditions were actually met, too — these monitors need a genuine cold start after a long soak, so a code from a partial cycle is worth confirming across a proper one.
