Code P1450 on a 2016 edge

Recommended Posts

After fueling on Friday my car would not start. Took about 10 tries before it started up. Next day I get my check engine light, a farting noise from the back of the car. My oil level was low so we added oil and the noise stopped. Tuesday it started idling hard and shaking when at a stop. RPM meter was moving up and down but still stayed below 1 rpm. Code it’s throwing is P1450. Autozone suggested part is the vapor canister. Online I’m seeing it code be the purge valve, or the valve solenoid. Can’t seem to find just the valve online without all the hoses. Anyone know the part # or if I’m even correct on thinking it’s the purge valve? Thanks 

car got a new engine at 115k miles, now has 152k if that matters.

Common failure on the 2.0, usually purge valve. There are ways to test it (I am sure some of your search results for it include videos on how to test it). It generally is all replaced, some of the harder lines are heat pressed into the valve, and better/easier to replace the entire valve and hoses that are connected to it.

If the 2.0 (not sure it is, since this failure is common for the 3.5 as well) you can find the valve separately if you can deal with the hard plastic hose off of it (some heat it up to soften it to remove, and then to go on the new valve).

Thanks for those responses guys it helped. We changed out the purge valve and all symptoms went away and after a few days the code cleared on its own. Unfortunately when I got gas a few days ago I had another hard start issue. Wasn't as bad this go around. But the engine light came back on today with the same exact code, showing I need a new evap canister. Any insight? Should we go ahead and replace the canister or could it be something else?

 

Note: I don't have a gas cap, just the flap you push in. My dad has mentioned those can cause less of a seal on the tank. Not sure if that could be an issue at play.
