Chevy Traverse P0496 EVAP system code - purge valve solenoid replacement
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 июл 2024
- Video description of replacing a purge valve solenoid on a 2010 Chevrolet Traverse with a 3.6 L V6 engine. This solenoid going bad as a result of after filling the vehicle with fuel, you might get two to three hard starts that will not allow the vehicle to start. Replacing this solenoid is usually a good indication of the problem being alleviated. This is opposed to replacing the Vapor canister purge that is located at the back of the vehicle where you fuel it up. If the vapor canister purge valve on the back of the vehicle is was bad, it would cause the pump at the gas station to be shutting off repeatedly because the vapors from the fuel were not being properly purged while fueling.

I am a single mom of three kids with a double major in literature and philosophy. I know virtually nothing about mechanics. My car was doing this...struggling to get it to turn over every time I fueled up. I followed your instructions and $50 and 10 minutes later, my car starts right up. You saved me a good $200. Bless you!!!
Thank you so much! I'm a 35 year old female and I was able to switch mine out thanks to your video. The part was $45 and it took me less than 10 minutes. I appreciate you so much!
Thanks so much. I know almost nothing about car repair. It took me less time to switch this out than it took to watch your video. Thanks again.
OMG I was about to take my 2015 traverse to the dealership after replacing the gas cap because it barely wanted to start after fueling each time plus other times it would shutdown if I didn’t press on the gas n take off quick. After researching & watching your video and following your steps the check engine light went off immediately. You saved me so much money. Thanks.
Outstanding... worked perfectly on a 2013 Traverse and undoubtedly saved me from a $200-300 dealership visit. Note the part looked and fit exactly the same, but slightly different AC Delco part number. Look up your year on any of the parts store websites before ordering.
Thank you, ur the man. I’ve been racking my brain for a week or so trying to figure out what the hell was going on. I tested the valve, noticed it was faulty and replaced it. Now it starts right up every time. Thank God I can now cancel my appointment with the mechanic…I wasn’t looking forward to paying that hefty bill. You sir are a godsend
My 2013 Chevy Traverse hard started after fueling. It has 64k miles. First noticed, it acted like my foot was on the accelerated starting it, it wasn't. This happened a few times now. Did your paper test, of course didn't need the paper as its a strong suction. Picking up the part in the morning. Piece of cake. The hardest part was squeezing the electrical tab. Gloves helped. Glad all the forums led me to your video. Thanks a bunny bunch. Its Easter Sunday!
This matched step for step what I needed to do. No guessing on what comes next or missing instructions. It was very easy to replace. Great instructional video! I even had the same before and after results on the suction paper test just as he demonstrated, so I know this was what was causing my problem.
Great video! I have a 2012 traverse with a check engine light. I was a bit apprehensive to tackle the engine code fearing it would be a difficult job. After watching this video and going through the paper test my issue was the purge valve solenoid.I went to the auto parts store bought the part and changed it in less than 10 minutes check engine light gone. Thanks for the great video.
thank you as a young self taught mechanic ive been lucky to have ppl like you helping show me tricks of the trade i learned 3 or 4 new things thanks to this.. and not only did you help me more than likely find the problem in my customers chevy traverse,, but i think i just found my troubling vaccuum leak in my 2005 ford sport trac
Thank you! That did the trick on my 2016 Traverse with 78k miles. Check engine light came on this morning at 0800, had the code read at Advance Auto at 0900 and it read P0496 Evap system flow during non purge stage. Ordered the part on Amazon at 1000. AC Delco part # 12690512 and had the part the same day by 2000 hrs. I did the paper test and it was positive. Had to disconnect the battery to clear the check engine light. It took longer to disconnect the battery than it did to change the solenoid. Thanks again for a great video.
Dealer wanted to charge me $250 for this job, used your video and saved me $200
So I have been riding around with the check engine light on for 3 christmas leason well on 5/31/21 the car was struggling with a ruff idle and no get up and go.
I take it to get code pulled and came back with the P0018 P0019 P0018 P0019
I'm in tears because that code is very bad and expensive. I remembered that I bought the perge solenoid back when the check engine light came on. So I watched more RUclips videos and decided it can't hurt to try.
I would also like to add that my solenoid was not sucking air.My husband said no way, I said please try it bla bla bla.
Well here I am just came back from a one mile ride quiet running no stubble.
no shifting ruffle No check engine light.
Love this comment!
Thanks for posting this video.
I was looking for holes or cracks in lines & hoses around the engine. Time saver. Thanks again!
I owe you a virtual hug! Thank you so much for this video! You are awesome! God bless you and your family!
THANKS! literally the easiest part I've ever replaced on a vehicle in my life.....even easier than wiper blades! BUT, my check engine light is still on. I did the air flow check with a piece of paper and got exact same results before and after replacing the solenoid as in this video......the guy at Napa said the engine needs to go through 6 or 7 cycles before the light goes off though......
Yes, it takes a bit if you don't reset the light with an OBD tool. If you don't have an OBD tool you can just unhook the battery for a bit and that will also reset the light.
Me and my son just used your video. You saved us a lot of money. Thanks.
I added fuel this morning and it almost stalled. I started the engine to come to work and it stalled once. I'll check the code and test this valve out. Thanks for the info!
Thanks so much for this video. Ordered the part from amazon and followed your step by step instructions! Saved me a bunch of money!
This video just saved me a trip to the shop. Thank you for the information.
Thanks for the video, just replaced mine after troubleshooting like you just did!
Thanks for this video it was very helpful my wife was stranded at the gas station after filling her tank with $40 worth of gas the car would not crank just happened one other time after three or four times and trying to crank or Chevy Traverse it would finally crank I am going to change out no fuel solenoid valve and I believe that will fix our problem thank you for this video
Thanks for the video. The part was about $45 for my 2011 Traverse, it took about 10 minutes to change out the part. I saved hundreds! Thanks again!
Anwar Wh glad it helped you.
OMG!!!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! TOOK literally 10 minutes and you saved me hundreds of dollars. Thank you so much. Keep it up!!
thank you very much. My 2015 Colorado had the same issue. For the two years I've had the Colorado I've noticed a rapid ticking from the right side that sounded almost like lifter knock but now I think it was this stupid solenoid valve and it eventually burned out (I haven't heard the ticking lately). I had no idea where to look for this thing until I found your video. Thanks again!
You're welcome. Glad it helped you.
2012 Chevy Traverse - 135K miles - This seems like it solved my problem. I was having this issue for about a month. It would start after I reset the check engine code, by removing the battery. I cheked the old part and it had a strong vacuum, so I knew it was bad. I found my part on Amazon. It literally took me 5 minutes to replace. I had a 1/2 a tank of gas, I went to the gas station to add more gas to see if it would hesitate starting. I drove around for about 30 minutes..no engine light, no rough idle..I had better acceleration and power. I will continue to watch and will let you know.
This part only cost me $45. Thank you again
Thank you for the video. Followed your instructions and solved the issue.
This is exactly what was wrong with my 13’ Traverse. 50k miles. Thanks!
Thanks for this video. It helped me a lot. That's just what my truck is doing. A Blessing. Thanks again
I just did with this video and my car is working! $300-$1500 my A$$ which is what a mechanic shop told me!!! This took literally five minutes to fix. Thank you so much you saved me a lot of heart ache and money!
Ca Smith glad it helped.
Was able to change this on my 2011 Traverse yesterday using this video. We will see if it worked the next time we fill it up.
Did this solve your issue? I have a 2011 as well with the same issue.
@@davidwebb8509 did this work for you?
@@moblackmoney3424 worked perfectly.
Thank You! This showed perfectly what I needed. Other than your hands getting in the way all the time ;). Helped me 100%.
Had to comment! This did the trick for me however I did have to reset the code! Saved me some money man thank you!!
This same part cost me $300 to be fixed... lesson learned
This video saved my life and my bank account.. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much, fixed my problem perfectly.
6:10 - you should recruit your kid to help with the job! ;)
Thank you for the excellent instructional video.
Thank you so much for this video. I managed to find a replacement on Amazon for about 40 dollars with shipping. Took her out for a fuel refill and it started with no problems. This easily saved me about 150 bucks.
Great Video, quick tutorial easy install 5-10mins max. Thanks
I had the same probably and same code showed up before I replaced mine. Hopefully it works. Thanks tho
Thanks for making this video. I'll be following this process to fix my wife's car. She was having the same problem. She would would put gas in it and it would have a rough idle and then turn off or have difficulty starting after fueling. Again thank you
Thank you sir very helpful video.
thank you for the clarification... appreciate it much.
Thank you much for the video!
Dude your awesome! Thank youuuuuu!
Thanks for the vid
This fixed my issue for my 2012 Traverse. Thanks for making the video.
Did the engine light turn off? The code I got was p0442.
@dave c 1973 When I filled the tank with gas, it was hard to start right after fueling.
After I replaced the part the light was still on, so I went to fill up the car to test if it was fixed, and it was. I cleared it with my code reader.

I don't have a code reader.
Thank you for this video.
Thank you
Very helpful video! Unfortunately, it didn't turn off my check engine light but the purge valve solenoid was indeed stuck open. Now if you could do a video on EVAP fuel tank pressure sensor for a 2015 Chevy Traverse. That's our next attempt...
Disconnect your positve battery and connect after about 2 or 3 mins. It worked for mine.
It won't turn off the engine light. You will have to have that reset. You can take it to the dealership to do that or I had Auto Zone do mine.
Gracias
Thank you.
May have to do this on my daughter’s 09 Acadia
Thanks for the video! Huge help, fixed my wife's car in less than 10 minutes. Also, i appreciated the additional information with regard to troubleshooting the vapor purge at the pump.
I have a 2017 Traverse, is the part number the same by chance? Thx in advance.
Literally also just fixed mine it was also having difficulty turning on after fueling only. 2015 traverse
ty!!!
Could you list the part # in your video description?
I don't have any trouble codes but found out that my ltft was at around 17 to 20%. I checked the thing with the vaccuum hose with the green button and air is being sucked only when the electrical connectors plugged in. Should I replace the purge valve?
Seen couple video would that cause the engine to make ticking noise if its bad? Thankz
Chevy dealer lied stating they had to take part of the motor apart to get to it, to replace it. Charged me $225.
Diagnostics charge 110. Party 53 dealer list half hour labor per book time plus tax. Seems legit to me. I love when people feel ripped off. I didn't spend 6 7thousand on a scanner another 70 80 thousand in tools to give people discounts! Get at clue at what shit costs.
Also, ehat is the rubber hose connection that your hand is hitting in to? Mine was disconnected.
That line right next to it, what is that called? And what connects the end to make it stay. The line that your hand keeps touching? Mine isn’t connected and seems to be missing a fitting to make it stay connected . The hose that plugs into that plastic air intake . The end with the clip .
Whats that big silver part? That has a vapor hose going to it on the core support?
Any idea why it would be ticking after replacement? I still get the evap code
Does that part make noise if bad
Hi, thanks for the video. I have a problem with the pcv sensor., you think you can make a video about it? Is a Chevy traverse 2016
Did the car ever shake and acted like it wanted to shut off??
It's not showing me with a vape canister goes where does The Vape comes to go because I already did the purge valve
Replaced evap purge control solenoid and won't start...please help...
Had this same problem!..part replaced and problem was solved..but now check engine light keeps coming on (saying same issue) had it reset twice by person who replaced part and the dealership that I purchased it from..and light is back on again saying same issue 🤦🏾♀️..what could possibly be wrong? 😩
When you had the P0496 code did you have any P0300 codes as well?
Michael Adams I did have a P0300 code, but that was before I got the P0496 code. The P0300 code is for a cylinder misfire, usually spark plugs and wires needing replaced. I replaced mine and cleared the codes and never came back.
If this is bad will the gas gauge read wrong and move all over also?
It can cause gas mileage to be bad
Once the part is replaced does the light go off or do you have to drive it ??
Alexis Scott you will need to drive it for a while for the SES light to go out. It needs to cycle through the computer to make sure there is no faults. This might take a week. If you know a mechanic or someone with a code reader, you could get the fault codes cleared out after replacing the part.
Ok thank you
I replaced this and engine light stayed off for a few weeks then came back on with same code. Returned part thinking it was defective and replaced with another new one. Same thing, engine light stayed off for a few weeks and came back on. Now I'm thinking it's something else. Any ideas?
I don’t know if you still need an answer to this, but for anyone else: there’s apparently a second one of these valves closer to the fuel tank? Could vary depending on which year your Traverse is. If replacing the one in the engine block doesn’t solve the issue, could be the other one
All nice and shiny... 😂
Nice video of your hand and arm🤣
I really hope this is the fix Bc this shop is saying $300-$1500 including a $90 diagnosis fee non refundable! 😂😂 boy bye!
Ca Smith man il diagnose for 50 and put the part in for free on this problem, ive seen shops charge $900 in my area and they wonder why i got more cars outside my shop
Did this fix your problem? Is the check engine light off?
Yes. The problem is fixed. Cleared codes after this. No SES light on any longer.
tnbk97 ok great! i tested mine just like you and i got that suction. i will purchase a new one. thanks for the video ..this is such an easy fix
tnbk97 this did fix my issue!!! Yessss i am so excited i fixed something myself!
N Williams glad to hear it. I've used you tube so many times for things...glad I can give back and help someone.
thank you...glad it helped
Nice video except your hand is in the way when you try to show how you're disconnecting stuff.
Couldn’t see anything with your hand in the way.
I had this replaced at the dealership about 2 years ago and now the same thing is happening again. I am contemplating fixing it myself to save money. Is this part something that should be warrantied? I am contemplating attempting to fix it myself to save money if not.
Take the fuel cap off,oil cap!!
Why in the hell would an auto manufacturer put something so damn stupid on a vehicle
Can’t see through your arms. Use a different camera angle that is unobstructed.
What was the problems the car was giving you.....
Read description and its dialogued in the video.

Thank you for the reply.
