02 WS6 Evap Purge Solenoid Connector

**Dandur805** · 02-12-2014, 06:27 AM

Attached is a picture of my Evap Purge Solenoid (I think) on the drivers side of the engine top next to the valve cover. The hose on the left goes to the intake/throttle. There is a wire connector on the right, and a hose connector on the right that does to the canister (I think). That connector on the right needs to come off (broken but repaired with epoxy). I have tried several ways to get it to let go and come off, but am at loggerheads with it. Can anyone tell me how to make it let go so I can change the dang thing? Thanks for any help.

OK, so I do not know how to post a picture. What the heck do I put in for a URL???

This is the picture of the solenoid above. Could not get it to post on it, so am trying this.

Hmmm. Should be a simple connection. Can't really remember without looking.

It was, and I did, and I thank you for your response. I don't know why GM used two different connectors for the same exact nipple, but they did. Anyway the change out was done this AM and it works great. So you can consider this problem complete.
