check engine light points to vapor cannister saturated,ventor or purge solenoid?
What is your question?
Honda Accord SE has 112K. Light has been on for 2 months or so. Loose gas cap is also a probable cause but I have filled up several times and the light has not gone off. What would be the most likely failure and what should I try to change myself and what should I let the dealer change? The Troubleshooting code is P1457, which the Autozone rep said he had never seen before.
Possible remaining causes are: vapor canister saturated, failed vent solenoid, or failed purge solenoid.
RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2002 Honda Accord. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
first of all, autozone guys are not techs and cannot diag anything. they give you a code number which identifies a failed system, it never identifes a bad part.
evap systems are difficult to track down without a scan tool, smoke machine and voltmeter. you need a shop to do a real diag and give you a bid.
