Hi guys,

Wife's car throwing some P0441, P0442 and P0446 codes and after some quick research, noticed a few people saying it was probably a loose hose by the air filter. I decided to pop the hood open to take a look, didn't find any loose hoses but did find some wire for some sensor that is not in place. I went to advance auto parts but they weren't sure what this is, or couldn't order it but basically told me to take it to the dealer. I won't have time to go to the dealer probably for a couple of weeks so I'm trying to see if I can order online or over the phone but I'm not even sure what this is, can someone help me identify what this sensor is called?

Hopefully I'm linking this right, here's the image.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

that's a purge vsv valve connector

you might have to take it apart and solder it back together

dang... yea already tried to take it apart and solder it but it's not as easy as I would've thought. Hoping I can find a junk yard with this model car and maybe just cut the wires with another plug. Thanks for the help.
