  A: Before starting the Evaporative Emission Control Canister removal it is crucial to disconnect the negative cable from the battery terminal then wait 90 seconds following ignition switch turn-off for the navigation system to save memory and settings. Start with the canister assembly by removing its nut before disconnecting the wiring harness clamp bracket and separate the pump module connector and purge line hose and air inlet line hose. To pull the air inlet line hose away from its attachment at the canister you should push it in direction of the canister then pinch portion A of the hose to pull it out by hand without tools. The technician should examine the canister along with the hose area for dirt and foreign particles before cleaning any contaminated parts to protect the O-ring materials and to avoid leaks. Disconnect the vent line hose through the procedure of pinching the retainer before raising it while avoiding tool usage for inspection of any harm around the valve and connector. The last step involves removing the canister by disconnecting the wire harness clamp followed by unthreading its four securing bolts.
