took my code reader and deleted my p0449 code but it comes back a few minutes later. Says Evaporative Emission System Vent Control Circuit Intermittent. i am going to check for a loose connection but if i don't find one should i just replace the solinoid?

If that is what the problem is (valve not oppening or closing when commanded to)
There also could be a wire broken or shorted ,Did you check the connections to make sure they were okay?
The solenoid is located at the back of the car,if you dont hear the trunk monkey banging anymore then there is something definitly wrong with the evap cannister vent solenoid or its wires or connections.

ok I'm back with this same damn code that has been on for months. Both the evap and purge solinoids have been replaced, fuses checked and good, and from what i can see the wires and connections are good to the evap soliniod. Still no trunk monkeys and the code keeps returning after erasing. Any suggestions?
any one?

What are these "Trunk Monkeys" you speak of ??? I just bought an 06 SS and have code P0449. I prefer to troubleshoot problems instead of just throwing parts at it so I'm reading up on it. Is the solenoid supposed to make noises when the ignition is turned on or off or what? I haven't heard any sounds coming from the rear of the car. Thanks in advance for any help.
