My check engine light came on as soon as i started my car this morning. Went to autozone and they tested it, it came out as:
EVAP ventilation switch or mechanical fault.
Probable causes:
-Open or short circuit condition
-Poor electrical connection
-Failed vent solenoid
-Vacuum hose plugged
Im not sure what EVAP is, and i dont know what part the above problems are stated towards. I HAVE searched but none of the threads on this were finished and didnt completely help in the first place.Plus they are at least 6 years old.
I guess i need to know what direction to look in for problems, help would be very appreciated.
