Hi there. I have the vehicle listed above and the canister vent valve isn't working.
I checked it, and it works, but I think I may have a broken wire somewhere along the line. I was wondering if anyone here could point me in the right direction on how to get the wiring diagram for the AVAP system so I can trace it.

thanks in advance.

Heres the OEM wiring diagram for the vent solenoid but notice how many connectors there are on the power and control side of its circuit. If you're missing 12-volts at the Vent Solenoid's connector, such as the first connector coming off the solenoid (C3053), Ill post where those connectors are and a picture of them, the good thing about Fords service info for more current years, is that they show these connectors in most cases.

Here are the connectors in the Vent Valve circuit, note that the C213 connector is under the driver side lower dash, its a bulk connector near the brake and gas pedal area. Let us know what you find.
