EVAP Emissions P0455 or P0499 Fix for General Motors Vehicles

  • In this video, I discuss some emissions faults that are common among various makes and models and change the canister vent solenoid on a 2006 Buick Lacrosse with the 3.8L V6.
    Cheap OBD scanner used to find what codes are coming up: amzn.to/36Ym9r2
    P0455 = A gross emission leak
    Steps I would take to remedy:
    1.) Examine gas cap, depending on condition replace. Also look for dried or cracked vacuum hoses.
    2.) Replace the EVAP emission canister vent solenoid. This is what is shown replaced in the video and is located near the fuel tank.
    3.) Replace EVAP canister purge valve, which is located in the engine bay.
    P0499
    Steps to remedy:
    1.) Since code is directly related to the EVAP canister vent solenoid located near the fuel tank (like shown in this video) replace solenoid.

    The vent solenoid is the one by the gas tank, the one in the engine bay is the purge valve solenoid.

    thanks for this. I also understand the hose at the canister can deteriorate as well.am gonna check mine and maybe hit it with some rustoleum when I'm done.

      My update is that the nylon pipe connection of gas tank to the vent solenoid had cracked. I just spliced that pipe into two, introduced a brass coupler and connected the 2 pipes using Teflon tape for a waterproof seal. The problem is now resolved. The nylon pipe connection has bends due to crappy design of the vent solenoid inlet connection. The cost of repairs was just 10 bucks!

    If you're looking for a good cheap OBD scanner like the one in the video to figure out why your check engine light is on check out this one: amzn.to/36Ym9r2
    Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) parts replaced on this 2006 Buick LaCrosse 3.8L V6 in this video include:
    OEM ACDelco brand EVAP Vent Canister/Soleniod (underneath the car) with adapter harness: amzn.to/3o8ncf9
    OEM ACDelco brand EVAP Vent Valve/Canister Purge Valve (in the engine bay): amzn.to/37bMQJ3
    *Double check part numbers depending on what GM vehicle you're looking to fix emission codes on (most look similar but may be slightly different) and I highly suggest sticking with the OEM brand*

      Mounting the nylon pipe by hand is really really difficult. It is dangerous to use heat gun as that pipe is connected to gas tank. Please be warned. If your nylon pipe cracks, you repair the crack using various kits available at popular auto part stores.

      Bad or Cracked hose somewhere (a smoke test will find it quick) or cracked canister or wiring.....test the wiring has continuity and voltage. That would be the first test to do rather than throw unnecessary parts at a problem that isn't verified to be the actual problem. Exactly what I did because I was being lazy and "thought" I knew what the problem was. Replaced both parts for nothing just to have the P0499 pop right back up. Irritating to say the least. Most likely you have a dry rotted hose somewhere or a bad, broken or shorted wire or there is a corroded connection somewhere along the loom and that needs to be cleaned up and fixed. Then test again for continuity and voltage to confirm the repair, clear codes and drive. Should be good to go unless you have a demon haunting your EVAP system.

    99% of the time it’s the vent valve, especially on GM’s.....rarely is it the gas cap....

    There ya go shoot the parts cannon at it instead of diagnosing it the correct way did you do a visual inspection of the wiring first did you check your wiring integrity did you look at the service manual to see what conditions have to met for it to set that code the scan tool code only gives you the circuit where the problem is not the exact cause it's only a starting point and all the parts stores won't give you any direction they'll give you the code and they'll tell you it's this or that because they make $$ by selling parts not knowledge no sense in spending a ton of $$ on a part you don't need when it could be something as simple as patching a chafed wire
