Default xA codes P0441, P0455, where is the Purge Valve?

Hi...I am getting codes P0441 and P0455 on a 06 xA with a check engine light. I bought a new STANT gas cap, installed it today but haven't pulled the battery cable to reset, I have no OBD scanner. I was told it may also be the purge valve, I see many for sale on e-bay but I don't know where the valve is located. I think it is in the engine compartment, can anyone advise me here? I certainly hope it is not canister problems, maybe it is just the cap. Will pull the battery tomorrow. I sure wish I knew where the purge valve is located.
Thanks!!!

you have one on the side of the air intake box and one on the evap canister, best to replace the evap canister

Could be as simple as corroded electrical contacts. If you find the valves, disconnect the electrical connector, soak/spray in WD40 and plug back in a few times to wipe any corrosion off and see what happens before investing in new valves.
Remember the old nintendo's - they had the same problem
