Purge Control Solenoid Valve

Check self-diagnostic system for any trouble codes. See the TESTS W/CODES article. Check valve winding for short to ground. Apply battery voltage to valve terminals. Verify passage opens and closes as voltage is applied and removed. Replace valve if winding is shorted, or if operation is not as specified. See Fig 1 .
