One month ago I had the "Service Engine Soon" light coming out in my 2002 GMC Envoy. I had driven the car to the repair shop. The diagnose was "EVAP system error", they conficed me that such type of problems is caused by oxygen sensor. After changing the ogygen sensor, the light is still on and even stronger (lighter). I was provided by too many guesses for the cause of the problem. Can you help me guys to find out why the "service engine soon" is still on?
Thanks in advance

What was the code? An 02 sensor will not cause an evap code, how did the repair shop diagnose it? Were they guessing?Need to monitor evap data with a scan tool or put a evap smoke machine on it.(It fills the the sys with nitrogen and smoke to find a leak). Post back with the code and will advise from there.

Have the evap sys tested with a smoke/nitrogen machine to find the source of the leak.
