I found out that I had a small leak due to the incorrect installation of the engine air filter!! I didn’t know one of the corners was different and which way was faced up vs down. Good fyi to others!
Dude, I just fixed my 2013 Highlander using this video as a guide. Worked like a charm and saved me god knows how much. If you had a patreon I'd send you some ❤but anyway, thanks a bunch!
@@tongo117 my 2004 Toyota Camry v6 RPM drops when the engine warms up but works fine when it’s cold . What do you think could be the problem . I need help
@@africanlifeempire8108 It's normal for rpm to be higher when cold then gradually drop as the engine warms up.. But if rpm drops too low you may have an issue with your idle air control valve (IAC).. ua-cam.com/video/8H4qcciDsoQ/v-deo.html
@@tongo117 thanks for your response, my rpm drops to 500 rpm when it warms up which I consider too low, hesitates from stop but sometime works fine at 750-800 rpm Rpm doesn’t affect the movement . I’ve changed the IAC , it didn’t fix the fault
I have no codes, but when i fill up the gas tank the car turns but doesnt start... would a evap purge solenoid be the casue??? Car runs good when it starts..lol
I think my code could be do to this! Do you think it’s due to the canister purge solenoid ? I don’t see any other cracked hoses. I got a new gas cap but that didn’t help.
I have the same issue. Replaced the cap and hoses/tubes looks good. Was thinking to try and connect 2 wires directly to the battery without removing the purge. Just to test it
Great video as a first step. It may not be 100% reliable test resulting in a false positive of ruling in or out whether a purge may works or nit despite electric test unless a compression test is done to verify there’s not small leak.

Can you test the solenoid directly without removing it from its place? I have only P0456 and was thinking to connect it directly to my battery for a test with 2 wires. Already replaced the gas cap and the tubes in the engine looks ok to my eye.
@@tongo117 thank you, will try tomorrow because it got dark today. I have a strong feeling it is it because this error came up when it started freezing in Texas few weeks ago, maybe the solenoid broke due to weather
@@tongo117 Good morning again, I did the test and it clicked every time I connected to the battery, means it should be good, right? (I didn't remove the battery main connectors, car was not turned on, key removed, not sure if I had to remove them first as you did in the video, I think). I checked again the hoses, put some zip tie here and screws tight some screws in the big hose from the air filter compartment to the main unit, they where loose. Tuned it on and measured with ODB tool again and found 3 errors this time, not sure if they where present before: P0455, P0441 and P0456. In this moment I can't do anything more and I reset them, waiting again if they show up. Not sure if the test I did triggered somehow these new addition errors or not. Any idea?
Buenas tardes a todos una pregunta no se el ingles espero que alguien lo entienda este comentario, como se llama esos cables que usa para verificar si esta bien o ya no, gracias
What a bad design of that screw that holds it in place. Why couldn’t they have made it a t25 or something easier. I had to use a pair of vice grips to clamp down on this and get it to break loose holding the outside.
might be a split hose somewhere.. many causes for P0456.. www.yourmechanic.com/article/p0456-obd-ii-trouble-code-evaporative-emissions-system-small-leak-detected-by-jay-safford
Minutes ago I changed my valve in my 2012 Buick enclave..I had no codes but I when I start it when cold like in the morning I always get a very erratic idle.. Took it out for a test drive it ran like a thief . very surprised and remember i had no codes..I am gonna wait till she Cool off and then check her out again..
... just in the video picture alone this has got cracked hoses galore all over the place. Might as well get an assortment of different sizes of emissions hoses. Waste of time using a "tape bandaid".
thanks for the video. to be fair after you clear the codes, of course the check engine light is going to be off but that doesn't mean anything.

thanks for helping me fix my 2018 sienna van!

P0442 doesn't mean it's the valve it means there is a small leak in the system. In the video itself the rubber hoses clear as day have cracks in them.
yes.. might have been the split hose that I put tape on and/or the bad valve I replaced..
@@tongo117 Did the valve replacement fix the problem?
CEL stayed off for over 5 months but it's back on now with P0456 very small evap leak..
@@tongo117 Thanks for the update and posting this video. If you replace the cracked hoses, please update us.
Thank you great tutorials
Glad to have helped..
muchos gracias. that hose next to the purge valve was also cracked :)
❤❤❤
Excellent job
I think my code could be do to this! Do you think it’s due to the canister purge solenoid ? I don’t see any other cracked hoses. I got a new gas cap but that didn’t help.
I have the same issue. Replaced the cap and hoses/tubes looks good. Was thinking to try and connect 2 wires directly to the battery without removing the purge. Just to test it
correction, would this be similar for a 03 lexus rx?
Could someone please tell me if this is the same for a 2001 Toyota Highlander. I'm going to try to do this myself. 🥺
Yes it is, we have the same car and I just done mine. My engine looks exactly like the engine on this video
@ronaldpoole5921 thank you
One of the other hoses you didn't tape also has a split, try fixing that too and clear the codes again.
Great video as a first step. It may not be 100% reliable test resulting in a false positive of ruling in or out whether a purge may works or nit despite electric test unless a compression test is done to verify there’s not small leak.
2005 Sienna changed and tested purge and it was bad, thanks!
Glad to have helped.. Thanks for reply
Did mine on my Sienna and I still throw p0456 at about 100 miles
