Evaporative Emission Ventilation Solenoid Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the evaporative emission canister and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid assembly.
  2. Connect a plug to nipple (B) of the evaporative emission canister and evaporative emission ventilation solenoid assembly.
  3. Check air tightness by applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the battery to the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid and without applying voltage.
