Leak Detection Valve: Service and Repair
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CANISTER VENT SOLENOID
Removal and Installation
WARNING:
-
The evaporative emission system contains fuel vapor and condensed fuel vapor. Although not present in large quantities, it still presents
the danger of explosion or fire. Disconnect the battery ground cable from the battery to minimize the possibility of an electrical spark
occurring, which can cause a fire or explosion if fuel vapor or liquefied fuel are present in the area. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in personal injury.
-
Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel-related component. Highly flammable
mixtures are always present and may be ignited, resulting in possible personal injury.
1. With the vehicle in NEUTRAL, position it on a hoist.
2. Disconnect the battery ground cable.
3. Remove the evaporative emission (EVAP) canister assembly.
4. Disconnect the fuel vapor hose from the EVAP canister vent solenoid.
5. Release the evaporative emission canister vent solenoid from the evaporative hydrocarbon filter.
