Canister Purge Valve Replacement 2012-2018 Ford Focus 2.0L

In this video I go over the replacement procedure for the evaporative emissions canister purge valve for the 2012-2018 Ford Focus 2.0L equipped with the DPS6 transmission. The evaporative emissions canister purge valve is also known as the evap purge valve or the vapor management valve. The replacement procedure is simple as shown in the video. Installation is the reverse procedure. Be sure to erase codes after the repair has been made.

***Correction: at around the 3:35 mark I mention that the purge valve tube has to be disconnected from the tube on the fire wall going back to the gas tank. THE TUBE ACTUALLY GOES TO THE EVAP CANISTER, NOT THE GAS TANK. Sorry! My goof.****

Note: As mentioned in the video a stuck open purge valve can cause an incorrect fuel gage. However, Ford has issued a TSB, 18S32, concerning this issue. If the recall has been performed it is my understanding that the concern with the incorrect fuel gage resulting from a stuck open purge valve should not happen. Here is a link explaining in greater details what the safety recall 18S32 involves. Also, please contact your dealership if to verify if this recall is still open on your vehicle. You may be able to get the issue repaired at not cost.

Here is a link to a video I did concerning the issue of a stuck open purge valve. I also touch on recall 18S32 a bit too.:
