I have an 0214 code stored on my car. According to the Haynes manual, it denotes EVAP canister purge colume control valve or circuit fault. Looking at a diagram of the evap system (diagram 20.1 "Schematic of the EVAP sytem" in the Haynes manual), and 20.10, it appears that all I have to replace is the EVAP canister.

I am correct in my diagnosis?

 

The EVAP control valve is located on the front of the canister on the right.... the valve is 65.92 for the 96' and it requires an o-ring.. if i am not wrong the newer models are a little different and and this is all built together and is still only 65.92.... it will take only 3 min.s to fix it if this is the problem, it just plugs right into the canister, this is the only think I can think of... b/c I dont compleatly understand the code...but it sounds like what happened to my car about two weeks ago but I was getting P0440, so I am not sure whats going on but I have most of the charts on line... if you need them email me....Maxima_gle@hotmail.com Hope this helped....Jason

 

i had that 0214 along with some other one, forget which. i took the valve off the cylinder, cleaned it with some wd40, put it back on, and no more code. no money spent either

 

Do you have a pic of any of the components? I bought some parts today, and I'm not sure if they are the correct ones. The parts guy assured me they were, but I don't really trust him.
