Removal Procedure
The EVAP vent solenoid is located on the upper-end of the fuel filler pipe inside
the left-rear wheel opening.
Caution: Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned.
To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist, provide additional support
for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.
- Raise the vehicle.
- Remove the left rear inner fender well.
- Disconnect the vent solenoid quick connect pipe.
- Disconnect the EVAP vent solenoid harness connector.
- Slide the spring clamp nearest the vent solenoid down on the molded hose.
- Disengage the 4 locking tabs from the shield of the EVAP vent solenoid
box.
- Remove the shield on the EVAP vent solenoid box and slide down the molded
hose.
- Remove the vent solenoid from the box and vent pipe from the vehicle.
- Disconnect the vent solenoid from the molded rubber hose.
Installation Procedure
- Install the EVAP vent solenoid to the box on the filler pipe.
Important: Ensure that the vent solenoid "clicks" into engagement with the
locking tab on the box.
- Install the shield on the EVAP vent solenoid box.
Important: The lid or shield for the EVAP vent solenoid must always be installed. The lid
and the solenoid box shield the vent solenoid from water and contaminants. This allows
the vent solenoid to function properly.
Important: Ensure that the vent pipe is properly positioned in the retainer on the fuel
filler pipe lower attachment.
- Install the vent pipe and molded hose to the quick connect on the EVAP canister
vent hose.
- Install the vent pipe hose to the EVAP vent solenoid and secure with a
clamp.
- Connect the EVAP vent solenoid harness connector. Push in the connector
until a click is heard and pull back to confirm a position engagement.
- Install the left rear inner fender well.
- Perform the "Service Bay Test" for the evaporative emission system using
a scan tool. This test will verify the integrity of the vapor handling areas of
the fuel system.
