I suppose the engine code said that cylinder was not firing or faulty? I would immediately get a compression check done on the engine. It is relatively painless. My burnt valves (compression 10psi vs 150psi) could not be diagnosed any other way. Does this help?

Check the gas cap. My 2004 trailblazer kept giving me a check engine light after filing up with gas. I went to Canadian tire and bought a locking (with key) gas cap and no more issues after that. I tried two of the GM gas caps, and they both failed to make light go out. Dealership could not resolve issue, so I bought the generic gas cap and it fixed it.

Was a 10.00 fix and did it myself.

Try disconnecting the battery for a few minutes and if the light comes back on then it is most definitely a sensor. Auto Zone will run a free diagnosis to let you know which sensor needs replacing.

2006 Chevy Trailblazer LS. What fuse controls the EVAP Canister Vent Solenoid please?

there are like 1billion cars noW doing this.
  1. the gas cap was loose or bad !!!
  2. theN the driver did not know it takes 30 driving cycles to clear the CEL lamp. OOPS 30? OBD2 DOES THAT. PER SERVICE MANUAL RULES, IF YOU READ THEM.
  3. the fuse did not blow, or you'd have not asked where it is, I get that.!

99% of the time the cap was just loose or bad
my car the 1% time, the purge solenoid stuck
and my walmart silicon spray'd there (INSIDE IT) ended FAILURE for 50,000 more miles.
learn to buy AND USE a scan tool (borrow, rent ,buy)
tighten the cap again
scan the pCM see the cel lamp reasons./
push reset on the toll (CEL goes off if lucky and not 100 other DTC errors set)
and drive 3 times or more and the CEL stays off.


the other resets are(NO SCAN TOOL,. REALLY?)
1: PULL BATTERY LUG FOR 15MIN AND PUT BACK
OOPS RADIO GOES DEAD. dang
2: PULL ALL IOD FUSES. THE PCM MEMORY FUSE ONLY.
Ecm F29 IS IT(MEM) (PCM) 10AMPS
ALL DTCS NOW GONE, STORED. THE DATA FELL; INTO THE BIT BUCKET AS THEY SAY

IF ALL TESTS AND WILD GUESSING REPLACING ALL EVAP; VALVES. THEN COMES THE SMOKE MACHINE TESTS.
TO FIND THE LEAK
THIS IS AND EPA MANDATED MONITOR IN USA.
FOR SURE. THE 2 FUSES FOR BOTH EVAP VALVES ARE HERE.

Abslight stays on. How to fix? This is a2007trailblazer?

First you need to have EBCM - electronic brake control module check for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's . If the light is on there is a code stored . I think most part stores can do this and for free . After you find out what code is stored , looking up that code in service repair information for diagnostic trouble shooting chart would be next step . There are a few codes too.
DTC C0035 or C0040
DTC C0045 or C0050
DTC C0110
DTC C0131
DTC C0161
DTC C0186
DTC C0196
DTC C0201
DTC C0240
DTC C0241 or P0856
DTC C0244 or P1689
DTC C0245
DTC C0283
DTC C0287
DTC C0290 or C0292
DTC C0455
DTC C0550
DTC C0558

Find the code do the diagnostic's , fix the problem , wiring issue's , a sensor , bad module ,what ever it is . The light will go out then . Here is a sample of code discription .
• DTC C0035 Left Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit
• DTC C0040 Right Front Wheel Speed Sensor Circuit

Initially change the Plug lead to get a result. Use a Long enough Plug Lead from any other vehicle, as a quick fix, and reclean the offending Plug before trying.
