For ANYONE replacing the whole thing. the connector that people always have problems with is down by the alternator. The solution is to loosen the hose clamps above and below the piece that the connector is attached to and simply rotate it out to the front of the engine. then you can get to it without tearing your hands to shreads or trying to jab at it with picks and screwdrivers.

Just did this on mine and spent around an hour messing with that bottom connector. Disconnecting the hose would have probably made it a little easier. Was able to get it with picks and screwdrivers lol

Thank you for showing us how to take out those connectors. I was having a hard time with this. I was afraid to break them. You showed me how to do it. Thank you again.

Thanks for this video explained everything and easy to understand thank you!

Thank you for a great video. I wish that I had seen it before I attempted to remove the hose with the yellow clip that goes to the large rubber air tube. I was attempting to remove that air tube to give better access to the solenoid valve which is the only part that I was changing, (I have big hands). But, when I attempted to remove the yellow clip, I did it incorrectly and I broke the clip. I was willing to take a chance on just changing the solenoid purge valve because the part cost was only about $15.00 on Amazon, and ninety-nine percent of the time, it's the solenoid valve that is bad, and in my case, it fixed the problem. But now, I'm sort of in a pile of dung because that clip is not replaceable, (unless of course someone knows of a way to repair/replace it). It's not a problem right now because the hose is still securely attached to the air tube since the locking part of the clip is still in the connector so the hose cannot be removed. But, if and when the day ever comes that I have to remove that hose, I suspect that my only option will be to destroy the entire connector, remove the hose, and change the entire tube, (if that day comes I'll buy a FANLIDE Vapor Canister Purge Valve F2GZ-9D289-A on Amazon for $70.00 and use that assembly, which is a far cry better than the $176.00 that Ford wants for the same assembly.

Thanks

My vehicle has that symptom after my fill up it is flooded. Thank you very much.

Awesome video 👏 It's always good to get the science behind repair, thanks again. Lemme ask a quick question, could you have just changed the Vapor Canister Purge Valve only, instead of the whole assembly

From what I’ve seen, the hoses are all permanently connected.

Yes, you can, but you'll have to replace the hose that you'll need to cut for the repair.

Nice explanations…. Anyone have any other idea about the P1450 fail? Since I replace it on my 2017 ford escape and the issue persists…. Every time I fill my tank, I have to wait couple minutes to start the engine

Hey I have the 2015 ford edge 2.0 but my valve has 2 hoses and just the solenoid and I can’t find it anywhere I’m very confused the thing has 2 hoses and on the solenoid not the 3 hoses and the solenoid any advice thanks!

Lol, I did this replacement literally a week before you posted this, real knucklebuster. Btw what scanner are you using there?

How did you reach the connector way down under the engine? I'm having a really hard time getting my hand around the radiator hoses

The code along with your symptoms makes it a big possibility this is your issue.

Bro when are you located? Or what’s your service area?

Purge solenoid.

Folks, if you haven't taken yours apart yet and are planning to tackle this yourself, save your hands, knuckles, wrists, energy, curse words, and frustration. Do this instead - Clip the zip ties holding the 3 hoses together. Undo the white pinch connector hose from the top of the intake and underneath, and also the purge valve over on the driver's side under the intake hose. LEAVE the hose with the YELLOW CONNECTOR ALONE. Undo the zip ties on the new standard piece, and use the hoses there, other than the one with the yellow connectors. After you have the other new hoses set into place and purge valve in place, just zip tie them back together like they were from the factory and you're set. I'm 2 days into a 15 minute job, so don't be like me.
