I'm getting a check engine light, with the engine code P0446. I am considering replacing the Vapor Canister Purge Valve - GM (12690512), but I am unable to locate it on the truck. Can you provide a diagram or description showing the location, or suggest where I can find that? I haven't been able to find any YouTube how-to videos for my specific truck. Thank you.

Hi,

It is located near the top, rear of the engine. It's close to the brake master cylinder.

If you look below, I attached the directions for replacing it. The pic shows the location. Take a look through them and let me know if it helps.

Take care and I hope you had a nice Christmas.

Joe
