Purge Control Valve Solenoid

NOTE: When disconnecting vacuum hoses, label or mark them to ensure proper routing when reconnecting.

1. Disconnect the red striped vacuum hose and the non-striped vacuum hose from the solenoid valve.

2. Disconnect the electrical harness connector from the solenoid valve.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve Vacuum Test:

3. Connect a hand vacuum pump to the red striped hose nipple.

4. Connect jumper wire leads to the purge control solenoid terminals.

5. Apply a vacuum to the solenoid valve. Vacuum should NOT leak.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve Voltage Test:

6. While vacuum is being applied, apply voltage directly to solenoid. Vacuum should leak.

Purge Control Solenoid Valve Resistance Check:

7. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the solenoid valve.
