    Please help me before I lose my entire mind.

    I need to replace the evap canister (the one behind the driver-side rear wheel).

    The one I bought from Advance was WRONG because the existing pig tail did not fit - it was totally different.

    These seem to be like the holy grail online and I don't know where to find one.

    Is there a jumper I need so the pigtail fits?

    Thanks in advance.

    Are you talking about the canister vent valve? A lot of those changed connectors, you can get a jumper harness from a dealer.

    Hi Daheazle -

    Thanks for the reply. It was the pigtail, and I got that sorted out, but still the light is on.

    I replaced the Evap part under the hood yesterday and STILL the light is on....

    Any other ideas?

    Did you get the code cleared? And what code is it setting?
