That was very helpful I didn’t want to change my evap canister without having a way to check it

[@TheDisgruntledMechanic]

Wow Surprised you are working on a Chevy! They never break down! good video and explanation.

[@BigDog50001]

So true, this is one of those rare times they break!

I appreciate how you break everything down. Thanks

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@mr.nobody9630]

Outstanding troubleshooting procedure and verify repaired. Two thumbs Up.

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks!

[@bobwoody9225]

Great video, the owners manual says to check gas cap make sure it is tight, also says fuel may be a issue, I put 93 octane but usually use regular to see if the engine light goes off no change. Car is running good other that engine light on!

[@BigDog50001]

Yeah gas caps can definitely cause EVAP issues, thanks for the comment!

[@SUPSGARAGE]

Thanks brother! This help me fixed my wife's car!!! Now she can stop complaining and bugging me 🤣😂! U saved me a headache!

[@BigDog50001]

lol 👍

[@arthurfricchione8119]

Dave another good one. Enjoy your attention to detail and how you explain the way the system should work and the values you should see while performing the job. ❤️️ thanks for the bonus footage. Alwaysbhangnto the end

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks!

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

I would also unplug the vent solenoid and check for vacuum or use a vacuum guage if you don't have a scan tool

[@rondail5675]

Excellent How-to and explanation. Thank you!

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks!

[@qualudaking]

Very very helpful video just fixed mine today!! Stay blessed

[@BigDog50001]

Glad it helped, thanks for the comment!

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Love the test light and that aeswave kit is nice

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks for all the comments!

[@kenseth234]

Super Informative video. helped me become confident in the operation of the system. allowing me to understand how to diagnose these problems in the future.

[@BigDog50001]

Glad it helped, thanks for the comment!

[@zombieslayer4951]

Great video sir!! Thank you for taking the time to make this! 😃👍

[@BigDog50001]

Thank you for the comment!

[@IsshmanGarcia]

Very nice video on EVAP and GM/Chevy.

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks for the comment!

[@Eagleknight815]

Great video. Got this code on my 05 Chevy Colorado. Just too bad I live in a condo where I can't work on it......here. But I can take it somewhere with this info and get it fixed cheaper. Great video 👍

[@BigDog50001]

👍

[@donnaa3479]

Thanks for this video. I replaced the solenoid and the engine light is still on. I think I’m going to have to take it somewhere and have the wires checked 😢

[@lazarovazquez106]

Around the minute 9:08 when you are performing the light test, there’s any other chances to have a good idea if I have shorted wire or something else? I have the same code and I have a multimeter but not the computer since I’m just an regular owner person but I’ll love to check the circuit first and not just go and buy and replace the part. So, what should I can expect if the circuit it’s fine: Not continuity in between the terminals? Thanks in advance!

[@elgarfio4186]

Well explained, thanks for passing up your knowledge!!

[@BigDog50001]

I appreciate the comment, thank you!

[@Usmanthemecano]

Another great video! Thank you sir! What do you think the reason for what seems to be a rather premature failure (or is it?) Is? Car is about three years old, part's made by Bosch... What am I missing?

[@BigDog50001]

Poorly made/designed parts. It definitely should not fail on a 3-4 year old vehicle in my opinion.

[@charleswagner800]

Great video. Excellent explanation

[@BigDog50001]

Thank you, I appreciate the comment!

[@1diotwithideas]

On a 2019 it's on the front at the throttle/air intake correct? And in places were there is a wide temp fluctuations from hot to cold could that cause a false code?

[@mattyohman]

this was great thanks big dog, much appreciated.

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks for the comment!

[@miriamvivo4279]

Cleared po442 and 456 can not clear po448 on 2006 subaru sti will keep at it. I do have a sdt-206 smoke machine autool . Nice autel scanner but too expensive

[@jgeorges3061]

Dave, Awesome really good information is the info stands for most cars or there is a efferent in between cars. thank you and cheeeeeers

[@BigDog50001]

Purge and Vent Solenoids are pretty standard on many vehicles so much of the information can be applied to other applications. The actual voltages on the Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor would be specific to makes/models though. Thanks for the comment!

[@fire7765]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@BigDog50001]

Thank you for the comment!

Is your shop located in Florida

[@mguzma2230]

Can you tell me the name of that whole top piece is called that the purge valve is connected to

[@Sellinthatrap]

Love you bro. No homo. You saved my baby. Thanks bud

[@BigDog50001]

lol, thanks!

[@justintaylor3270]

How soon before engine misfire returns to normal?

[@MrALLI36]

Great tutorial. Make repairs simple to do. I own a 2012 V6 Camaro.

[@BigDog50001]

I appreciate the comment, thanks!

[@RealziesCuts]

my 15 RS is the same color, love the Blue Velvet

[@BigDog50001]

👍

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Good fix

[@ericaramirez3630]

Change the purge valve at the dealer and replace my gas cap and reset the light by unplugging the battery but it turn back on after 2 drive cycles . I did the same couple of years back and the light stayed on for a couple of more drive cycles . Do U think I should drive it a lil more and wait to see if it turns off btw awesome video man .

[@BigDog50001]

The ECM needs to run its diagnostic test for this code 4 times (and pass all 4 times) before the light will clear on its own (the light will come on after 2 failed tests). Also, the vehicle needs to meet certain parameters before it will test for this code (like engine off at least 8 hours). If this same code keeps coming back then it will need troubleshooting done.

[@ericaramirez3630]

Awesome thank u and ur videos are the best

[@isidroguerrero7039]

Going try this in the morning the 2013 camero rs been giving the PO496 and P0300 and I have replaced purge valve b4 so Maybe Circuit…. Idk …. Stability, traction, etc. came on and limped it home few blocks prob sparkplug and cables too . We shall see

[@amr-50]

very informative video thanks

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks!

[@IsshmanGarcia]

@BigDogg50001 at 5:42 you said engine was stumbling because it was expecting fuel, but wasn't getting any. Was it just getting air? Everytime I hit seal- the car completely stalls and any vacuum pulled immediately drops. Would you say the back vent is stuck open some? The back vent does click to engage and disengage, but we all know that doesn't mean it's working 100%.

[@BigDog50001]

The charcoal canister stores fuel vapors from the gas tank, when the engine is ready it opens the purge for a short amount of time to burn those vapors. If the purge is stuck open, the vapors are quickly pulled in and then it continues to pull in air (that the engine computer is not expecting). If the vent is sealed with a stuck open purge then you can see changes in the fuel tank pressure pretty fast on a scan tool (this is typically how the engine computer looks for issues on many systems).

[@IsshmanGarcia]

@@BigDog50001 Thank you for the reply sir. So is it plausible that for my vehicle to stall immediately when I hit the seal button- that the purge is likely to be sticking open?

[@kmart014]

Will this cause the catalyst monitors to not be ready at smog check ?

[@BigDog50001]

The monitors run each key cycle to look for emissions related problems and turn on check engine light if it detects any. If the check engine light is on, it will typically cause a vehicle to fail an emissions (smog) test.

[@Johnny5camisa]

great video

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks 👍!

[@Peewee239]

A+ video did it on my 2013 camaro.

[@BigDog50001]

Thanks for the comment, glad it helped!

[@richiewalkertenfour]

Is there a way to clear the code without the scan tool?

[@rumbador]

Awesome video Thank you !

[@D3vilEyez]

I had the same issue with my 2012 camaro changed the same part but my "check engine" light stays on. Isn't it supposed to cut off in its own?

[@BigDog50001]

It generally will turn off if the parameters for running the test are met and the problem was corrected. If I remember correctly for that code, the engine computer wants to see a cold soak (engine off) for at least 8 hours and a certain temp. Some codes won't clear unless the vehicle is driven at a certain speed for a certain length of time. It just depends on the code and the vehicle programming.

[@DZ-cb2bg]

hey brother I have a p0401 code on my 98 ranger anyway I can narrow down the issue with looking at a scan tool live readings? thanks

[@BigDog50001]

Yes, a P0401 is an EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) insufficient flow issue, usually you can look for EGR DPFE Data PID on a scan tool to help diagnose (depending on model). On many of those older systems, there will be a base reading on the EGR DPFE data PID (generally around .5V to 1V depending on type of sensor). Generally, when the engine computer does not detect a change from the base reading after commands the EGR valve open, it sets a P0401. Faulty DPFE (Delta Pressure Feedback) sensors, bad EGR valves (or clogged passages) can cause this issue, but I would also look for exhaust leaks and check any DPFE hoses to make sure they are in good shape.

[@DZ-cb2bg]

Big Dog50001 Automotive Thank you sir for your reply my scan tool doesn't read this is there another area I can monitor to narrow down Autel ml329 is my tool model number

[@williemoon7522]

do a video on cleaning that filthy engine bay .. so many of these videos i watch show very dirty and rusty vehicles .. my 08 suzuki is pristine compared to most i see on here .. i just have a thousand codes to fix ..

[@zantiagotron07]

Is this related to a code P0497?????

[@anthonyesparsen7776]

it keeps everyone honest omg!

[@squirrelwanted]

Will this cause vehicle from ruff idling

[@BigDog50001]

It is possible to cause a poor idle condition.

[@SOGFLY1]

I have this code with some misfires and I changed it along with the solenoid and I’m still getting misfires

[@BigDog50001]

I would troubleshoot the misfire(s). Spark, fuel, compression and timing etc are things to look at. Misfire troublecodes and a scan tool that can see misfire data can help pinpoint.

[@rafaelgonzalez-xm6pf]

Could this cause a p0008 code with it too?

[@BigDog50001]

No that's more of a timing issue (cam/crank correlation).

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

I would of put a tiny amount of lube on that o ring

[@davehernandez190]

that was an awesome video, so imformative. thank you but you say integrity weird 😆

[@BigDog50001]

👍

[@scooterw.8813]

Good video but clean that engine compartment. LOL

[@BigDog50001]

Not my vehicle, but I did do what I could to clean it up at the end of the video. Thanks for the comment.

[@dirtymoney05]

I had mine leaking on my 2015 camaro too

[@BigDog50001]

👍

[@rolandsemien1697]

Can I still do this without the machine???
