• Q: How to remove the Vapor Canister on 2010 Scion tC?

  A: The first step to extract the Evaporative Emission Control Canister involves disconnecting the negative battery cable but initialization procedures might be needed upon reconnecting it. Start by taking off the front floor panel brace together with the center exhaust pipe assembly and No. 1 fuel tank protector and rear suspension brace lower RH. The canister assembly requires detachment by pulling out the fuel emission hose while removing its two clamps and the leak detection pump connector and the fuel tank vent hose through retainer pinching. Users should inspect for dirt or foreign objects during this procedure. Caution should be taken with the fuel tank vent connector to prevent scratching while manually disconnecting all parts rather than using tools. The disconnected parts should get covered with a plastic bag after separation. A gentle application of force to push and pull operations on stuck fuel tank vent connector and pipe can release them. It is time to disconnect the fuel tank vent hose through the process of pinching the tab to unlock the lock claws before removing the hose from the charcoal canister while maintaining proper hygiene and safe handling procedures. The workshop clip remover tool enables removal of the workshop clip after which the charcoal canister can be taken out by unscrewing its two bolts. You can take out the canister filter sub-assembly by first disconnecting both hoses and after that removing the bolt and the filter.
