2001 crv p0420 tool shows cat, evap, and o2 monitors incomplete. Erased code now only evap monitor is incomplete. Does this point to evap as issue? thanks btw you are obviously truly passionate about what you do because when you speak about automotive it sounds like you invented it. by speaking like this it makes it easier to understand and appreciate this.
Hands down one of the best videos on this subject on the entire internet. This was like going to class and learning a lot! If you have P1456 P1457 error code on your Honda start by watching this video and then get informed about the specific features of your Honda. I was getting P1456 and P1457 and guess what? It was the two-way valve on my 2004 Pilot. With no special equipment I got the parts off the vehicle with the canister and the canister vent and canister passed. Then I tried the two way valve still connected to the bypass valve by blowing from the canister side to the tank side. The one on my rig leaked! I replaced with a confirmed good valve form the scrap yard and CEL off, tags on the way! Thanks, Big Dog50001!
I did my 02 Honda Accord lx today. at first I thought about taking my car to a shop but after I watched your video a few times I realized it is not a hard job, I got it done in less than an hour thank you so much for a great video it was very detailed and easy to follow, I think you should be an instructor and a teacher at an automotive school you have the voice so your students would follow well.
I will second Kelly Myers' comments. This video is FANTASITC. I have a 99 Accord EX. In the end I replaced the Canister and Purge Valve. The whole thing was one rusted blob after 22 years in the north. The information in this video educated me on how the whole EVAP system works in general. Translates to most vehicles. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the community!!!
Awesome! You saved me big bucks! Check engine light was on with code P1457. Tapped the solenoid like you showed. Disconnected the battery for a few minutes then reconnected it. Drove it around for about an hour. Still no check engine light. Went to get the emission check and PASSED! Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@BigDog50001 ...1999 Honda Accord with 261,000 miles in rust belt still going strong thanks to you! Cancelled my appointment with the mechanic this a.m. Going to get the get my renewal sticker this weekend! Thanks again.
Thank you for the comment. Good advice, if you watch my videos you will see I wear PPE including eye protection, but even I forget to wear them sometimes.
One of the BEST and most thorough videos I've ever seen. Thank you also for showing and pointing to all the parts and recording the entire removal and put back of these parts. Please keep up the excellent video work
Great video! Especially the illustration that advises where to look based on which code is thrown. When I bought my 2000 Accord for $500, I had to immediately replace both fuel lines but neglected to replace the third evap line. Your video showed this was my problem!
The best video on the subject! Your diagrammatic explanation makes me want to be an automotive engineer! You must have training in teaching. Having said that, I don't have the tools you have. So, it is off to a mechanic.Actually, this is a good video for mechanics.
Thank you for making this video. I especially appreciate the part near the end where you show how to test solenoid valves without professional test equipment.
No I don't have a video on that code but I would fix it in a similar fashion, seal system and find the leak or bad component that is fooling the computer into thinking there is a leak. The computer looks for changes in the fuel tank pressure during certain testing conditions and when it doesn't see the changes it is looking for it sets a code (after 2 trips). Fuel Tank Pressure Sensors, Vent Solenoids, Two Way Bypass Solenoids and Check Valves, cracked/broken/plugged hoses, Charcoal Canisters etc can all cause that code. Some models are susceptible to charcoal being sucked into the lines and clogging the purge solenoid and lines to it. Thank you for the comment!
Great video and easy to follow description of the system and the most likely problems associated with it. Thanks for taking the extra time to explain it and for filming it so well.
This vid save the day. Had a check emission light & injected air into the system which confirmed evap pressure sensor working but air would not hold in the system cuz of a stuck vent Solenoid.
Great video! Really well organized information. I've been getting learned about the p1457 code for a few days now and this is by far the best video I've seen. Thank you!
You have the best details and explain instruction on RUclips , which is easy to understand, unlike other sites confusing to follow up. Thank you for your valuable information 🙏
This was a great explanation of the system. Unfortunately, I've replaced a ton of stuff and still get the P1457 code. My issue has gotten worse in the past 2 weeks. Now every time I fill up gas, the car just cranks and won't start for the first 3 tries. After that, it will start, but stall out 3-4 times. After that, it will eventually stay on and drive perfectly normally until I fill up the gas again. I've changed the Charcoal Canister vent valve, then the charcoal canister assembly with the vent valve, the purge solenoid in the engine bay, the fuel pump assembly, and the gas cap twice, and the O2 sensor. It went away for a while when it first showed up a couple of months ago, but now it comes back every 2-3 days. Issue is starting to cost me a lot of money in parts and labor. One thing I'll note is that my fuel trims are high, but not high enough to trigger the lean code. My long term fuel trim is around +7/8 most of the time. And my short term goes to 0 if I'm coasting, but seems to rise at idle when I'm at a traffic light. Can you give me an idea of what else it could be? I need help. I smell gas after struggling to start after filling up, but I don't notice it after that.
Thanks! I have a P1456 error even after replacing the gas cap. The car smells like fuel when it gets warm so something is definitely leaking... I don’t have all of the diagnostic tools you do so I’m probably going to have to take it to my mechanic but your diagram was very helpful. I at least have some idea what the issue might be so he knows where to start looking.
Thanks a lot for the video, I have a 2003 CRV and a 2005 Element, and they have reached the point that lately I have been jumping from one to the other fixing things, right now I have emission problems with both I have a P0497 on the Element and a P0457 on the CRV...this video helped me a lot making sense of how the Evaporative System works. THANKS AGAIN Big Dog50001.
I think I beat the P 1457 code! Changed the evap canister and the canister shut off valve. Cleared the code and hopefully the engine light won't come back on. Going for emissions testing this morning. I did have to pay the oil change mechanic to loosen that one pesky 12mm bolt that held the canister to the frame and then drive back slowly the next day to have him screw it back in again. I'm in the rust belt too-WI. Parts $100+60. Mechanic estimate >$750 Big savings!! Thanks for the great informative video!
Thanks, this was so helpful. We had to dill out the old screws and tap new threads in the inserts on the canister, Car is in PA with 240K on the odometer.
Your videos are fantastic. Thanks for showing numerous ways to check the valve/solenoid. I have two Honda automobiles and appreciate all your Honda videos. Very descriptive. Thank you
Probably the best video I have ever seen, even I could understand how that system worked, (just a DIYer). I really do think you have missed your vocation in life and you should be a lecturer at college. All the best and please keep them coming.
Great video 👍 very helpful and understanding. Now I can fix mines without hesitation. Thank you for taking the time to show us how to properly diagnose the situation
thank you for going over the diagnostics using the diagram, followed by the clear and detailed explanation. gonna try and tackle this job this weekend.
thanks, emission testing is coming up and I need to get this fixed or else I won't pass. I recently took my car to get it fixed but they replaced the bypass solenoid. It didn't fix it at all, after watching this video I think I might diagnose my self and fix it on my own thanks!
😎👍 Cool, super thanks buddy for the 'Technical School / Shop Class' primer on the Honda Charcoal Canister, now let me do some basic shotgunning on this puppy, yay! 🚙😍
Great video I enjoy watching them. I like how you demonstrate the use of the Snap-on scan tool and work with basic Pittsburgh Pro tools to get the job done. I love their ratchets.
Excellent video 2 things wrong about this video. 1) wrist watch. 2) wedding band. That's day 1 safety training in high school. Remove all jewelry. Just don't forget to put the wedding ring back on before you go home.
I appreciate the safety points (although you could have worded it a little less abrasive), I worked in an underground mine for almost 10 years so I know all about safety. I have a silicone safety ring now so I don't have to worry about taking it off. Thanks for the input.
Oh my God I love your videos. Unfortunately I ain't too mechanic savy. I have a problem that has plagued me for about a year and lost about $300 on it. My vehicle is an 06 Honda Element California Emission originally, the vehicle is no longer in California. It started out with a p2422 evap vent valve stuck shut. The vehicle did not want to take gas when refueling. I paid a shop $200 to supposedly fix it. They say they replaced the valve. Three hundred miles later the code came back. I called them up and they were pissy about it, so I said screw it I will fix it myself. The shut valve looked like an original part, so they either did not fix it, or they put a used part on and charged me for new...or maybe they put a different part on instead of the valve. So I went to the junkyard and replaced the canister, canister vent valve, fuel pressure sensor and the seperator. Its been about 2k miles and the check engine light has stayed off, but I got a new problem related to it. I can hear multiple puffs of air coming from the evap system while running. I removed the gas cap while running and the vehicle stalled. I put the cap back on and started it. To my surprise there were no more puffs of air until it ran for a few minutes. The sound came back. I am at a loss for what to do next. I do not think the parts I put on were California emissions though, if that matters.
Some of the parts around that time frame are different depending on whether it was California emissions or not, so that might be an issue. I would double check all my work and make sure all hoses and connections are good (many times if a line is not connected properly you can hear a noise when the computer opens the purge valve). Unfortunately, without seeing it anything I tell you would be a guess. Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it!
Excellent! Clear concise and thorough. And yeah, I would have had a sparky little 9 volt battery at the canister testing the Canister Vent Shut Valve solenoid. Of course - if I blow the car up it wont keep throwing codes, right? Thank you.
Thank you Thank you Thank you, Best video ever, and of course I smashed the like button and subscribed, very educational and straightforward, this video has help me with troubleshooting my 2002 Honda Accord. P1457 Code, thanks again BigDog50001 Automotive 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Respect ✊🏾
@@BigDog50001 ever had an issue with either the purge or ventvalve it smells like gas fumes which one can it be between the ventvalve and the purge solinoid.
That's a good video on my car a replace the hall canister a vavle and u know what I still have po1457 now what can be the issues I here the valvle shouting off too but I can afford a smoke machine it has to be something simple got a new gas cap too
Great video! We currently have the same issue and wanted to test the solenoid but we're pretty new to vehicle repair. At around 24:21 in your video, you're using a gator clamp and the battery -but neither of us can figure out what the leads are connected to the solenoid itself (In this case, you're using the red lead).
Sluggy's Slug Cast Sorry, I could have shown it a bit clearer. If you look closely, the other end of the two test leads are connected to the two terminals inside the connector on the solenoid. That connector is where it plugs in on the vehicle.
I replace the vapor solenoid and it is not it which costs me $50 . So I measure the resistance of the solenoid 2 prongs to be .02 ohms, the solenoid is 95% good. IN the engine compartment, there is another solenoid called purge valve with 2 prongs, I measure it to be 0.02 ohms . I knew this is good . So the only part bad is the vapor canister. I got the canister from Advance Auto parts with 25% discount to be 60$ same as Amazon but I can get right away. So far it is good no more the engine light come up with code P1457
I have a 2001 Honda Accord lx and I changed the canister purge valve and the car before was making a knocking kinda poof sound from the canister below and after charging it it’s still making noise and my check engine light came back on again . Idk what it is I think I’m just going to change the whole unit .

My vehicle is an 06 Honda Element California Emission originally, the vehicle is no longer in California. It started out with a p2422 evap vent valve stuck shut. The vehicle did not want to take gas when refueling. I paid a shop $200 to supposedly fix it. They say they replaced the valve. Three hundred miles later the code came back. I called them up and they were pissy about it, so I said screw it I will fix it myself. The shut valve looked like an original part, so they either did not fix it, or they put a used part on and charged me for new...or maybe they put a different part on instead of the valve. So I went to the junkyard and replaced the canister, canister vent valve, fuel pressure sensor and the seperator. Its been about 2k miles and the check engine light has stayed off, but I got a new problem related to it. I can hear multiple puffs of air coming from the evap system while running. I removed the gas cap while running and the vehicle stalled. I put the cap back on and started it. To my surprise there were no more puffs of air until it ran for a few minutes. The sound came back.

@@BigDog50001 ever had an issue with either the purge or ventvalve it smells like gas fumes which one can it be between the ventvalve and the purge solinoid.
Almost hoping this was my problem cause the way you explained it I got this 123 but not my problem unfortunately

your FANTASTIC !
Thanks!
Great video! We currently have the same issue and wanted to test the solenoid but we're pretty new to vehicle repair. At around 24:21 in your video, you're using a gator clamp and the battery -but neither of us can figure out what the leads are connected to the solenoid itself (In this case, you're using the red lead).
Sluggy's Slug Cast Sorry, I could have shown it a bit clearer. If you look closely, the other end of the two test leads are connected to the two terminals inside the connector on the solenoid. That connector is where it plugs in on the vehicle.
You sure earned my sub today. Thank you!
I replace the vapor solenoid and it is not it which costs me $50 . So I measure the resistance of the solenoid 2 prongs to be .02 ohms, the solenoid is 95% good. IN the engine compartment, there is another solenoid called purge valve with 2 prongs, I measure it to be 0.02 ohms . I knew this is good . So the only part bad is the vapor canister. I got the canister from Advance Auto parts with 25% discount to be 60$ same as Amazon but I can get right away. So far it is good no more the engine light come up with code P1457
Hopefully you got it fixed, thanks for the input!
😍 yay! Charcoal Canister 🚗🚙😍
Thank you! Excellent vídeo!
best teacher

best video
Thanks!
I have a 2001 Honda Accord lx and I changed the canister purge valve and the car before was making a knocking kinda poof sound from the canister below and after charging it it’s still making noise and my check engine light came back on again . Idk what it is I think I’m just going to change the whole unit .
