GM Genuine Parts 12735397 Evaporative Emission Canister Purge Solenoid Valve — for Select GM Models

A lingering fuel odor around your parked vehicle, a rough idle, difficulty starting after refueling, or a check engine light with EVAP codes (such as P0449 or P0455) — these are common signs that your evaporative emission canister purge solenoid valve is failing. This valve acts as the critical link between the fuel tank and intake manifold, regulating the flow of trapped fuel vapors from the charcoal canister into the engine to be burned off. A faulty valve can cause vapor leaks, poor fuel economy, and emissions test failures. Replacing it with this genuine GM part restores proper vapor management and clears related trouble codes .

This is a factory-original GM purge solenoid valve (OE part number 12735397, ACDelco 214-1680). It is designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards and backed by General Motors. Note that this is the purge valve, not the vent valve — they serve different functions in the EVAP system . This is the same part sold at GM dealerships.

When to Replace

• Check Engine Light with EVAP codes (P0449, P0455, P0442, etc.)
• Fuel odor around the vehicle
• Rough idle or difficulty starting after refueling
• Poor fuel economy
• Failed emissions test
