Carbon canister-purge solenoid (models with catalytic converter) - removal and refitting

2 Disconnect the battery negative lead.
3 Disconnect the solenoid wiring plug halves by releasing the locktabs and pulling on the plug halves, not the wiring.
4 Note the locations of the two solenoid pipes, and the orientation of the solenoid, to assist with refitting.
5 Disconnect the two pipes from the solenoid, and withdraw the solenoid from its location.
6 Refitting is a reversal of removal. Ensure that the solenoid pipes are correctly reconnected, and that the solenoid is correctly orientated, as noted before removal.

compartment. On 1.8 litre engines, the
location varies according to model and
equipment, but can be traced by following the
solenoid pipes back from the carbon canister
(see illustration).
