Purge Solenoid 2000 Blazeryorkbronson 06-14-2005, 06:28 PM Check Engine light came on...indicated the problem was the Purge Solenoid. Are they pretty easy to install??? The shop said it was located near the firewall... Thanks, York Allbert 06-15-2005, 08:31 AM If it's the same as my '98, then yes, very easy. Just a little fuel vapor line on the side, an electrical connector, two bolts (I think it was two) and then a good tug (there's an o-ring that fits pretty snug into its port). Mine was on the passenger side near the back of the manifold. Only took about 5 minutes to get it out and back in again. Out of curiosity, what code did your ECM give? Was it P0440 or some other? yorkbronson 06-17-2005, 04:33 PM you know, I should've asked. I thought it was my vapor box near the gas tank so I brought it into the dealer because they had just replaced it...but it turned out to be this. I didn't even ask them for the code. They wanted to charge me $150 to put in the Purge Solenoid...no way! I just went on Rock Auto and bought one. I'm just hoping I don't screw anything up by trying to do it myself. The service department said it was fairly tough to get to, but I don't really take them at their word. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
