  Q: How to replace a Vapor Canister on Scion xA?

  A:

  The Charcoal Canister Assembly replacement process begins with disconnecting the connector through deep insertion followed by pinching portion A then pulling the connector out. The first step includes the removal of both fuel tank vent hoses and purge hose disconnecting. Before removing the fuel emission tube connector through its clip push the pinch down and examine the connector area for dirt or mud because the quick connector depends on an O-ring for proper sealing. Nylon tubes should be handled without tools or bending and twisting methods while their connectors should have vinyl or plastic bag coverage. Gently apply force to pull and push the pipe to unstuck the material. You should disassemble the carbon canister by removing its three bolts. The new Charcoal Canister Assembly needs to be fastened with the three bolts torqued at 19 N.m (193 kgf.cm, 14 ft.lbf) and further secured by attaching the fuel emission tube along with the purge hose and both fuel tank vent hoses before reconnecting the connector.

  Q: How to service the Vapor Canister on Scion xA?

  A:

  Service of the Evaporative Emission Control Canister requires a 90-second wait along with negative battery terminal cable disconnect to avoid Air Bag and seat belt pretensioner activation. Begin by unplugging the connector and removing the two attached clamps from the canister and continuing with the tube and hose release by using a screwdriver to lift the retainer (without removing it) before separating the purge line hose and air inlet line tube and vent line tube from the canister. The last step involves the removal of the 3 canister securing bolts. Secure the canister with its 3 bolts using a torque of 19 N.m before linking the 2 tubes and hose for which you must first install the air inlet line tube followed by the vent line tube and purge line hose (put the retainer in after hose installation). Reconnect the connector before attaching the 2 clamps for cable connection to the negative battery terminal. Several systems might need initialization steps after disconnecting and reconnecting the cable from the negative battery terminal so initialization procedures should be completed.
