EVAP VALVE SIGNAL 850

posted by  someone claiming to be dpsc on  Fri May 21 04:56 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Besides the errors of 232 and 315 I now have a specific 541.

I knew I had a vacuum problem which brought the check engine lite on. I checked all the rubber vacuum elbows and none were cracked. Replaced 3/4 of the vacuum lines especially the ones near the turbo. They were very cooked and brittle.

The 541 is an EVAP Valve Signal. Is this the switch that is on the air box where three vacuum lines connect? Some other location?

If anyone knows.

EVAP valve solenoid is right above the radiator fan, tucked underneath the shroud. It's a light yellow and dark yellow vacuum hose on one side, and a third hose which color escapes me right now. I once had a rough idle and check engine light, the problem was that the vacuum hoses were reversed on the solenoid. Double-check the vacuum hose sticker on the inside of your hood. Hopefully it's something simple like that. Good luck!
