EVAP Canister purge control valve/soenoid valve circuit

I just got a code 0807 on my ECU. Per decoder on VBXMAXIMA it means "EVAP Canister purge control valve/soenoid valve circuit", does anyone know what this problem means? Does anyone knows how to repair it?

I also tried resetting my ECU, but the damn unit won't reset. I turned it counterclockwise but the the screw will NOT stop. Can I still drive it like this?

Any advice or information from anyone will be greatly appreciated.

there is a writeup in the stickies that tells you how to get under the car (get under the driver's side rear-end i believe)...theres a big black box down there that holds all the water evaped from your gas or something...anyway, the writeup explains how to remove the solenoid, clean it out, and douse that thing with wd-40 and it solved my problem.
