The engine management light came on have had a EOBD diagnostic check and has come up with two fault codes P0453 Evaporative emmission system pressure sensor/switch high P0447 Evaporative emmission system vent control circuit open Just wondering if anyone can help i presume the two are linked if i get a new sensor i presume it will fix both i would like to know where the sensor is situated and if it is easy to locate. Many thanks 996carrera4s 2003

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.
