Front: remove the headlight housing to access the turn signal housing.Rear: remove the tailight housing via the wing nuts inside the trunk.

First you need to locate the service side low pressure port which usually has a blue cap. You will also need to have a can of R134-a refrigerant and the attachment hose. Turn your car on, run the ac on its coldest setting, fan on full, and the recirculating button on (in cabin recirculation as opposed to fresh air from outside). Attach the can to the hose, take the cap off the service port (blue) attach hose to service port, verify pressure (if no pressure in system you may have a leak and I would have it professionally looked at before wasting a can of refrigerant. Make sure you have the can upside down and are agitating it back and forth until it is all gone. Can will get very cold when it is almost done. Next I would test the temperature using a thermometer in one of the vents. Temp should be between 60-70....sometimes it can be even colder near 40-50 depending on the vehicle.

Hi there,

Code P0442 relates to the Evaporative Emmission Control (EVAP) system and denotes a small leak.

The EVAP system prevents the escape of dangerous fuel vapours - these vapours are re-directed to what's called a Charcoal Canister (looks like a medium-sized cylinder with tiny hoses running to it).

As this relates to fuel vapours, one of the most common causes can be as simple as the petrol cap is not screwed on tight enough (or has been recently replaced with an incorrect aftermarket type). Other causes can be a hose has come off somewhere, a hose has a pin-hole or is perforated.

This type of code will usually itself after a few trips, but most people prefer to clear codes after resolving the cause.

First, check the petrol cap.
Second, you will need to trace all hoses within the Evap system and check for any signs of leakage (wear or damage etc), and remedy accordingly.

Codes can be cleared either by using a suitable Diagnostic Scan Tool, or simply disconnecting the NEGATIVE lead of your car battery for a few minutes, then reconnecting (Note: if the battery is disconnected or goes flat, run engine after power is restored, to allow the engine to relearn its settings).

If the code returns, then you should have the Evap system checked properly by an authorised dealership.

Cheers,

Scott

it screws into the exhaust pipe like a spark plug the ones on the manifold are sensor 1

3.8 V6 runs at 30-45 psi.some GM engines require 65-75psi

These solenoids are internal you would have to remove the tire, axle and trans side cover not as simple as it seems by my explanation.
