Canister Removal/Installation

NOTE
The two ports on the top of the EVAP
canister are identified as TANK and
CARB. See Figure 104. Label each
hose before removal so they can be
easily identified during assembly.
1. Remove the toolbox cover and the side cover
from the left side of the motorcycle.
2. Label each hose on top of the canister.
3. Release the hose clamp and disconnect the sole-
noid valve hose (C, Figure 102) from the CARB
port on the EVAP canister.
4. Release the clamp and disconnect the fuel tank
hose (D, Figure 102) from the TANK fitting on the
canister.
5. Make sure the canister's vent hose is free of the
frame member.
6. Remove the two bolts that secure the canister to
the frame, and remove the canister.
7. Installation is the reverse of removal. Note the
following:
a. Each hose must be connected to the correct
port on the EVAP canister. See Figure 101.
b. Make sure the hose clamps and bolts are tight.

Solenoid Valve Testing

Perform these test procedures in the listed se-
quence. Each test presumes that the components
tested in the earlier steps are working properly. The
tests can yield invalid results if they are performed
out of sequence. If a test indicates that a component
is working properly, reconnect the electrical con-
nections and proceed to the next step.
